Title: I dont understand?
Post by: seth30 on September 30, 2013, 06:44:39 PM: Looking through my photos this year I came across a doe mounting a doe. Do deer do this as a dominance thing like dogs?

Agreed. We keep our young rabbit does in the same hutch til about 4.5 months old. There is always one that mounts the others.
