Bucks breeding does - 11/26/07 04:16 PM
While I was at the lease this last weekend I was told something about how does are breed. The guy said when a doe goes into heat she will go to thick cover and hide until a buck seeks her out. Then when a buck has found her he will stay with her for 24 to 36 hours and breed her about ten times during the this time. Well if the rut is usually a week and a half to two weeks long. That means that a buck will only breed 4 to 5 does during the rut. So does this help explain why big bucks are so hard to find alot of the time or is what this guy told me not true. It made since when he told me, but just wondering what you guys think?
