I just found out that "AA" at the beginning of the number means American Alpine ( Please don't laugh, this was my first time to register a goat), so apparently our two "French Alpines" which we have had for 5 years turned out to be American!!!!!? I could swear (if I did, which I don't) that the man who sold them to us called them French, as I could also attest that their applications said French, NOT American! I just sent them in not long ago, and just got the papers back a couple days ago, and turns out, our dear girls are American.
Not that I mind, really, but it makes me feel like a complete IDIOT! Especially because we finally bought a buck this year, and we got him specifically because he is PB French. :wallbang: 
Anyay, sorry for ranting. My question was this: both does have the same sire, an AA; and one doe's dam is also AA. But the other doe's dam's number starts with "GA". I couldn't find out what this means..?
