She is behaving like a normal hormonal entire Doe

I would get her spayed which will improve her quality of life, protect her from Uterine Cancer and infections and also make bonding her into a quad more likely to be successful.

My vet says when she has had her stitches out but some people advise waiting for about six weeks in order for the hormones to calm down.
