I didn’t realize how much she had grown in the past 11 days until I did a side by side, but still is this swelling the end or will it get bigger? Udders look huge when I google them but they’re all usually dairy goat breeds and she is a meat a boer/fainting and I can’t tell if their udders are...

Hello all, I have just started my life with goats yesterday! Love them already, they are too sweet! I have three boys, I got them at the Mt. Hope auction (Ohio). They are all different sizes, all are weaned and eating hay and grain. Our little guy, named El, is pretty small. He is only 19 lbs...

Hey everybody! I was just wondering, those of you who rent bucks to breed your does, how much do you get charged? What do you think is a fair price? And let's say that the person is renting the buck to you pays for the feed also for their buck. Thanks!

I read somewhere that I should expect a Boer goat to produce 50% of its live weight in meat. That means if a Boer weighs 200 lbs. alive, I should expect about 100 lbs. of meat?

Hello, I am planning on getting a couple of wethers to have as pets, one is a full nigerian dwarf and the other is a nigerian dwarf and boer cross. I would like to know or have an aproximation of what would be the adult size of the boer cross kid, I fear it may be bigger than I anticipated...

So here is my dilemma: My friend has this incredibly sweet Boer doeling which will be eight weeks old on the 20th. My friend tried to disbud this kid with acid (which didn't work) and so now this goat has little horns poking through. I plan to bring this goat to my place in a week or two, but...

Hey y’all, I’m very curious how much my Boer yearling doe should weigh by this year’s fair to be on par with other does her age. She’s filled out fairly well but she’s sort of short so I feel like she may be smaller than other does. I don’t have an exact weight on her right now, haven’t weighed...

Hi! We have just started a small Boer herd and I need info on all the registration stuff through ABGA. We have applications to register the two does and one buck. The other buck the breeder registered and we will get the papers from him once they come in. That buck will only be registered 50%...

How much longer do you all think she has, I think her babies have finally dropped!

Forgive my horrible finger getting in the way haha. Remedy is getting closer, and closer, and i am getting more and more antsy! She has started separating herself from the herd, and is grooming herself like mad. She is even letting me love on her, which she never does.

I wasn't sure if this could be her plug or not..She is very close to kidding. What do you all think? Thanks in advance.

Does above her vulva look puffy to you guys? Is that normal? She is due in the next couple of weeks, and I wasn't sure if the puffiness was normal?

Hello everyone! I am new to this group and new to bottle babies!. I have a 4 week old boer kid that we have been bottle feeding. He was born 24 hours after his twin brothers and sisters. We didn't think he was going to make it but he is or was thriving and is the same size as all the other kids...

We have a couple Boer does that may be getting shown in 4H this coming year. That being said, we haven’t worked with them hardly ever. What is the best way to halter train them so that they walk nice and stand posed?

Ok, so I feel like the ABGA has gone kinda hectic these past few years. DISCLAIMER I have only been with the ABGA for 3 years, so don't know if these past years I've just had bad luck OR if they are always like this. I sent in registration papers in May and I have still not received them! My...

We have 1 one and a half year old buck and 2 Stargate's Infinity grandson bucklings born end of March and end of April, that will be ready to go when weaned. They are from a CAE, CL and Johne's disease clean herd. The older one was tested recently and came back negative. Pictures are on our...

Hello, new to goats but experienced with poultry and horses! I lovingly own two Boer/Alpine cross doelings who are just bursting with personality. They are from a set of triplets but hilariously look nothing alike! Luna is small, brown in body with a white face and upright Alpine ears. Her...

Hello all, I am a new goat owner and have run into a serious issue very early on in my goat-raising journey. I have two Boer/Alpine cross doelings that are 1 month + 24 days old. They were a set of triplets but I only bought the two doelings. The smaller sister, Luna, is very healthy and...

First off, I hope I'm posting this in the correct forum - if I'm not then I'm sorry! I'm just kinda of frazzled right now. I have a boer doe, this will be her second time kidding, due any day. I didn't have her ultrasounded so I don't have an exact due date but based on when I first noticed...
