Very true on the moon spotting... slipped my mind when I was posting, that Nigerians or nigerian crosses are the only dairy breeds who can have that. :/
I thought Mike & Ike was gonna be a choice. ;)

Almond Joy is such a great name for such a great breed of goat! I don't know why not many people have obies.... They're nice, quiet, and just overall amazing

I think it has something to do with their size being intimidating... like with my Mom. She would not consider and obie because it iss too big for her liking. She prefers smaller animals, as exhibited by her dogs: 27 lbs, 16 lbs, and 8 lbs. She does not wish to ever own a big(over 30 lbs) dog, unless it is one that she will not come into contact with, like an LGD(would be in my care). I do find it odd that she would prefer a llama or alpaca as a LG over a dog... but that is my Mom for ya.
Personally I would love to have an Obie doe for milking, and let it breed with our 2 Nigi-Pyg bucklings(will officially be bucks in September) and get cute little mini Obies!
Maybe I can convince her before fall to let me get just 1 obie doe for my birthday in October.... anyone close to NH that wants to gift me one ??? ;) ;) ;)
:D

Compared to all of the other full-sized dairy goats, obies are actually one of the smallest, and they milk wonderfully!

For the record....... Other breeds (ie nubians) can have moonspots, But not blue eyes... yes, yes they are called spotted or speckled, but they are moonspots.

It would be a defect in the toggenburg, oberhasli, saanen, and sable breeds since they need to have the correct coloring for the breed, unlike alpines, nubians, nigerian dwarfs, etc.
