Default In season...

Hi, all,

I'm often asked by people about the female CsV heat : number of cycle per
year, spacing, duration, start...

It was my understanding that, being a primitive breed, CsV females react
like she-wolves, one heat per year... but it seems some females are 'in
season' twice a year!!!

In another hand, I was convinced litters are due at the end of
winter/beginning of spring... and saw CsV litters born between January and
December!!!???

Are we losing some parts of the primitive side of the breed or what? If so,
what about working abilities (and standard) after 10, 20, 50 or 100 years?

Any opinion and/or comment is welcome!

Best regards

Philippe
