The length of coarse hair and horns are found in both males and females. They are semi-circular back in females. They are helical for males. Long ears are 20 cm long and do not exceed 47 cm. The average growth rate is about 200 grams per day.
The Ardiyat goats are the most common breeds in terms of number, infestation and spread in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Studies conducted at the Faculty of Agriculture in Riyadh indicate that milk production can be developed to produce 3 liters per day for 120 to 150 days.

Are these your goats also? I love their hair! Do you shear them or do they shed between seasons? I must confess, I like them better than the Shami goats. And the EARS! I love the ears! These are some fine looking goats!

I also see that they stand in sand. We have sand for soil on our little farm. (8 acres) We moved here 3 years ago. We have worked hard to establish fertile ground for a vegetable garden and planting grass for pasture. Do you also raise a vegetable garden on your farm?

Yes, the last goat is my goat , the three goats are for my companions, we do not cutting hair permanently or once in a lifetime, and I also love her more than the Shami goat (these goats do not cut her ear at all), because her beauty is long ears and width

This photography was in the desert and there are not many green areas, yes we have farms, land reform for agriculture and vegetable production for humans and livestock also.

Thanks for the link, it looks similar to a Gulabi I saw pictures of - I love the long ears. They do look like they could be the ancestors to the modern day Nubian with their Roman noses and long ears.
