What breed buck should i get for my herd?

[kacey142]

So i have spanish\boer goats and im not sure what breed of a buck to get. Can anyone help me?

What are your goals? Are your females on the small side?

 

[kacey142]

My goal is to have nice heavily built babies and my females are medium side.

What percent of spanish do your does have in them? If they are 50/50, I would go with a heavily boned boer buck, But if you are wanting to keep more of the hardy in them and beable to range them more and not so much creep feeding then you may be better off to go with spanish.

I guess the other option would be kiko, not sure if you are wanting to add a 3rd breed into the mix.

yeah, my females are about 50\50 ...thank you so much. I thought about a boer buck but now its about finding the right one.

Feel free to PM or ask on here about how to go about buying a boer buck, what to look for. There are a lot for sale right now, you may be surprised at what you can find for a good price, even with papers and ennoblements in the pedigree. That would help increase your sales, if you have extra doelings that you don't have room to keep they may sell better with papers and you will beable to ask a little more for them.
