Breeding question

[KimM]

Should does be bred every season to keep them reproductively healthy or should they get a season off sometimes?

Most people breed regularly to insure a kid crop($$) and milk. Most stop breeding between 8 and 10 yo.

I breed my girls in Nov. every year.

If she goes a year without being milked she could put on a lot of fat that could make it difficult to get her to breed when you want her to the next year.
