They look like they have a lot of Boer and Nubian in them. Awesome coloring, though, I'd love a few of those guys hanging around my place!

Or...perhaps there's a lot of sirohi in nubians, and a lot of nubian in boers. :)

LOL....Boer and Nubian are both "new" breeds, compared to THOSE goats.

Middle-Eastern goats have a LOT of influence in both Boer and Nubians...not the other way around.

Look how high they are in the back end....a notoriously hard 'defect' to fix in the older Nubian lines. What you're looking at in these pics are the direct ancestors of true Anglo Nubians, created in England from African and Middle Eastern stock.

Boers were created by infusing the African goats w/ Middle Eastern influence to create a stockier, more meaty animal.

There's probably not a lot of true "Nubian" in Boer goats, they just both share common ancestors.

That's true, I didn't think about that until after I posted it.
