Hi everyone!
Im new here, so I’m not great at searching previous posts yet, so sorry if this had been asked many times!
I’m getting a Nigerian Dwarf buck in a few weeks and never experienced the smell in rutting season. I’ve heard it’s absolutely awful. That being said, I’m looking at places in my property to put his pen. I have read from other blogs that the smell can bother neighbors. I’m on 3 acres, and have one neighbor way closer to one side of the property than the other. Will 250 feet be enough distance from both my house and the neighbors house to contain the smell? I’m planning on keeping them (him and his wether brother) on the other side of the property away from does to minimize milk contamination.
Final question- while I know buck ND are “ready to go” all the time, I’m wondering if they for the most part follow the “normal rutting season” of late August to early December.
Thanks in advance!
