Breeding: Believe it or not, a little buck can, and will, breed a female at 2 months of age, this includes his mother and 2 month old sister! If you plan to use a buckling for breeding, we recommend that you weight until he is at least 7 months old to make sure he is fertile and healthy enough to accomplish his task.oes and wethers (neutered males) do not develop a smell like bucks do. It is bucks and their smell that have given all goats a bad rap for smelling. If you keep your buck with your does (not recommended) the buck smell will get on the does, and if you milk the does, it can get in their milk.
