My FG doe has taken kits out of the nest box to die and left the others she sees fit. Trixie ( the doe I got from you) keeps all of hers, no matter how many, in the box. My plan is to find a FG that is either steel to dark grey. I would like a doe to maximize output. One buck is enough, and he's a sweetheart, so unless he kicks the bucket, he's boss.
yeah I'm not sure whats up with these two doe (sisters), and a third doe, They refused to use the box, all kits born on the wire, died of cold. I used different bucks (just have a grey mutt and the FG) each time, and cleaned the boxes between use. I think I will seal the box bottoms, and re galvanize the metal, maybe there is a lingering smell in them. IDK. They've had successful litters before.
