Isn't it Roe Deer that breed in the summer but hold off from having their young in the winter until the following spring/early summer? Quote Link to post
SheepChaser 8,089 Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 It’s same as anything. Folk say munty can breed all year round, but most breed in spring and summer. But they can and do have young in winter. And it differs year to year and month to month dependant on temp and weather etc. 1 Quote Link to post
