AHH, What's the buck's problem??

Our Boer buck has always been very friendly, go with the flow, happy buck.

Now he is chasing the girls, biting them, making barking sounds.

He has never done this before during last breeding season, so it is just him in rut or is it something else??

LOL, well....I guess nothing to worry about then. Other than the Does running all over from him. I guess he likes the ones who play hard-to-get.
