How long do female antelope hold their babies before incubation?

Female antelope typically do not incubate their young in the way birds do, as they give birth to live young rather than laying eggs. After giving birth, the mother usually hides her calf in tall grass or brush to protect it from predators, returning to nurse it periodically. The duration of this hiding period can vary, but it generally lasts from a few days to a couple of weeks, depending on the species and environmental conditions.
