Duration of oestrous cycle and gestation, and characteristics of postpartum oestrus of chital hinds are described. Mean duration of the oestrus cycle of chital hinds was 19.3 +/- 1.3 days, with a range of 17-21 days. Serum progesterone profiles are shown, with minimum progesterone concentrations near oestrus less than 2.7 nmol l-1, and maximum luteal values 16-26 nmol l-1. Mean duration of gestation was 234.5 +/- 3.0 days (n = 17).
