I don't think boar goats are so attractive. The pure bred Boar doeling that used to live on the farm was a baaaaaad goatie. She got out all the time and into the grain, wherever she was able to find it. She was not mean, just hard to handle. Boars have floppy ears and a very distinct fur pattern with the head and neck being caramel brown and the body white. Her mother was bred to a caramel Pygmy buck. The result is this goat.
She is not too tall, but certainly outweighs the other goats by double. I suspect that if she has male babies, they will be much more meaty, which is what the Boar breed is bred for - meat. She is slightly more docile than a Pygmy as well, which is a good thing with her size and horns. Basically she keeps to herself. She is bred to the Pygmy buck, Bil, so her babies will be 3/4 Pygmy and only 1/4 Boar. Summer will show us what that looks like. She is kind of pretty, don't you think? I think I will name her Brenda.
