Thanks so much for the great advice you gave while I was wondering if/how to get my does bred. I had a couple of emails of some nice looking bucks sent to me...will forward them to anyone interested or in the same spot I was.

We ended up purchasing a Boer billy. He is 3/4 South African and 1/4 New Zealand. (Have no idea if that is good or bad!) He is two years old and he is BIG. He definitely brings an aroma with him!! But the girls have quit running and seem to be more taken with him now. I just wanted to thank you on this board..you are all quite good about helping out others..Just wanted to let you know how much it is appreciated.

Any do or donts on Boer billys...or any billys for that matter!!

Thanks and have a great Monday!.....Sher

If you are serious, yes there is a good guy who lives up North of Dallas Texas, a real homesteader and real rancher. If you are interested I will send your addy to him. He is on one of my goat lists, Our Goat Barn, on groups.yahoo.com a private list. Vicki
