I have a question for you all pertaining another breeder. I have seen first hand this persons goats and have seen people talking great things about this persons animals. However i know things about them that a lot of people don't know. Things like the buck they are using has a severly undershot jaw, as does his littermate brother and his dam. I feel like i should tell the people that are thinking about buying kids about this, as the breeder isn't telling them. but at the same time i am friends with this person and i don't want to be the one to be hated for saying these things even though they are truthful.
So im asking if you were in this situation what would you do??? I just don't want someone to pay a lot of money for a kid for this breeding and then end up with a kid that has a severly undershot jaw. I mean i know theres a chance that he won't throw it. But personally if this had been my buck i wouldn't of taken the chance he would of ended up on the table. This is not something i feel should be passed around. I will never buy an animal out of this buck knowing that he has this probalem and it could possibly show up down the road, even if not his kids in his grand kids or even more generations down the line. Especially sinse a lot of the people i see that are wanting this bucks kids, are young kids who are jst starting out their show herd.
thanks in advance
