Angry Bucks are nuts

For the past month through the fence they have been acting all macho and blubbering, peeing the whole nine yards through the fence. I divided the girls into two groups one for each buck and put them with the bucks and nothing, I mean absolutely nothing, no blubbering, no peeing nothing Just 10 min before they where in the pens with the girls they where doing the whole act.

CF, how long have they been in with the does? Maybe they're gob-smacked, and can't believe their objective(s) is / are finally within actual reach!

It's the girls' fault. They aren't cycling. All that show on the bucks' part, but the does are saying, "Talk to the hand." (hoof)

The younger bucking has been in with my nigerian buck until this weekend, they where only separated by a piece of fence. I really didnt expect much out of him yet as he is on the young side.

However Hot Rod Lincoln hes another story, even when he broke out when the milking does where within site he gave chase, Sunday when we put them in with him he was snorting while they where on the outside of the fence but as soon as they where in, nothing

I know Lincoln is a fertile boy and does his job, he may be like my last two bucks and just like to have privacy. I have four daughters out of him here already and two bucklings.
