How long do I have before back in heat?

So both my girls just had their kids, and in the back of my mind is the question - when will they be in heat again?  Is there an average?  I have my buck separated, but currently the fence is attached and we have to wait until the thaw to move posts and panels around.  Thanks!

  • My doe came back into heat when her babies were only 8 weeks old! The situation may have been somewhat different from the norm though because she had her kids in late summer so breeding season was just getting underway and the other does were coming into heat, and also had brought in a new buck which got everybody going! After that she regularly came into heat every 21 days and it was all I could do to keep her from getting to the boys.
