This is Josh & Blackberry. Blackberry is a 50%Savanna/50%Boer

doeling. They recieved Reserve Champion at the 2007 Heart of

the Ozarks Fair in the Middle Weight Market Goat class.

 

This is Josh & RutRut, his 50%Savanna/50%Boer Cross wether.

This goat weighed 84.5 lbs @ 129 days. They showed in the Heavy

Weight Market Class, didn't place as well as Blackberry, but he was the

only 4 month old goat in the Heavy Weight Class.

Both of these goats were raised with the doe/kid herd and never
