thank you

Answer
hi humza-when  doe is pregnant the male must be seperated as i believe it was him that klled the babys.bucks dont like anything on thier patch.
if you keep them together they will mate again and she will go through the same routine if yo feel she is pregnant you must seperate the buck from her.
