Again I am behind on keeping up with Diva's page. She is still thriving and doing well. She is still lightly built and slender. Giving all outward appearance of a slow maturing doe.
Since our last post in June, Diva has had two heat cycles (her first). She is very insistent when we are heat checking the herd with a buck on a lead line that she is ready to breed. We have chosen to never breed Diva and in the event of an accidental covering (bucks do escape), we will be visiting the vet for a Lutalyse shot. Along with not wanting to create animals that are guaranteed carriers, we also believe the stress of a pregnancy would be too much for her already abnormal system.
I know, I STILL need to get pictures done.
