Yeah, he didn't know what to do with himself. :lol:

I'm super surprised this doeling is so nice! Bunny has a lot of Nubian characteristics (including those frosted ears and facial stripes) so when I saw her, she about took my breath. She's a big girl, too!

That's why I love outcrossing to Nubians, though...after the 2nd 'breedback' to boer, you seem to lose the dairy traits and go right back to looking 'all' boer.
With other dairy crosses, you can still see a lot of the characteristics after even 3 and 4 generations.
My "theory" is that since boer and nubians have so many common ancestors (and characteristics), it blends better.
