I DID see that udder - gorgeous!
I've corresponded with the owner. Here is what she had to say:
"All of these bucks are bred for superior udder genetics. The older two would be preferable as they have daughters on the ground and have consistently show improvement.
Flat rocks Felix Felicous comes from some of Flat rocks top genetics. His dams full sister won Best Udder at ADGA Nationals in 2011. You can see more of the udders behind him on our sales page at Www.dancingdogdairygoats.weebly.com
By the same token Flat rocks Captain Bart is also out of an exceptional udder line and has produced many beautiful daughters who are a joy to milk. You can see his extended pedigree and more information on our website as well. Lots of longivity in these lines.
For more information on the lines in general the Flat Rock website is
Www.flatrockfarm.org. Flat Rock is the oldest breeder of Nigerian Dwarf in the country and you can trace these boys pedigrees back quite a way there."
The goats are about 90 minutes away so seeing them won't be too much of a problem. I might try to do that this weekend if nothing else comes up. I wasn't really planning on buying a new buck until spring, but why wait when a nice buck comes along at a good price?
