Nubian or Boer Cross? Or something else?

I can see from the photos, she is very copper deficient. You will have to keep a close eye on her for worm load, She probably already has some stomach damage from poor care.

She looks just like a doe we have. Dished nose and short ears even the same light almost mouse brown color. I would think that she is almost the same breeding. Our doe is 1/4 Alpine 1/4 Nubian and 1/2 Boer.

I don't know but she is beautiful

I'd venture there's some alpine, togg, or saanen back in her lines somewhere, contributing to her shorter ears, non-roman nose, etc.
Maybe someone had a Nub / Alp cross, bred it boer, etc. etc.

It *could* be Nigerian, of course...but there's just no way to know.

At 8 mos old she's not reached her full size, they grow for 2-3 yrs.

I'm going with this one. She's got the build and face and ears of my little togg. I've also got a Nub/togg cross but she's Nub sized. So anyway, yeah, could be most anything and everything mixed up in there but I'd wager there's some Nub and/or Togg and/or Boer and/or who knows what else. Pretty girl though.

Thanks for all the good guesses! Brownie (I didn't name her lol) is very sweet and I like her no matter what kind of goat she is. She is also polled which is something else I love about her. Two of my three goat kids were not disbudded properly before I bought them. One has bad scurs and the other grew horns dispite being disbudded (they attempted to disbud him at almost 3 weeks old ).

My call is a Nubian/Alpine who was shorted on groceries, I am with Ariel on her call, and I would worm her asap.

On good feed she should grow out quite a bit more. Hold off breeding her.

I have wormed her twice since I acquired her in March. The only problem is that she is most likely already bred because the man I got her from was running her with a buck. I think he said the buck is a Spanish goat, but there again the man was completely clueless when it comes to goats. She hasn't come into heat (that I know of) since I've had her, I'm really hoping she isn't pregnant yet. She has filled out a lot since I got her.

She looks like my boer/nubian...
