Where do you keep your buck?

The buck stalls are right next to the does stalls in the small barn/kennel that used to be a 1 car garage. It goes buck, does, buck, does, dogs. The buck's outside pen is next to the does, they share a fence line. During breeding season the buck runs with the does unless I have 2. If I have 2 bucks, I put one buck in the doe pen with his group of does and the remaining does in the buck pen with their "man".

The buck(s) is/are in the barn when I milk, even during rut. I have never had bucky tasting milk because of it.
 
With mine, the "common" fenceline is sheep wire lined with wooden pallets. That arrangement does not leave enough room to do any between the fence breeding.
