quite possibly, I have one doe about to kid and pulling blood on the rest of the herd to see who is and isnt open so I can get a better plan down. This breeding before produced all color and spots, and have the pedigree and conformation to back them up. The doe that is due to kid is a 91 VEEE shes due in two to three weeks. I have a doe kid from the same breeding that I wasnt going to sell that is very nice and spotted with a lovely head.

No, but not sure if she is going to grow out of her underbite, sometimes Nubians because of the extreme noses can get an underbite, matter of fact if you look at several national champions they wont have a perfect bite.
I cant guarantee right now she will or wont so shes on my wait and see list. Very nicely pedigreed

I cant find a good link for you but in a nut shell.
her over all score based on
"
The ADGA linear appraisal System evaluates individual type traits that affect structural and functional durability, in order to take full advantage of the potential for genetic improvement through selection.
ADGA’s Linear System evaluates each animal individually, evaluating traits on the basis of one observed biological extreme to the other. It includes traits that are, at a minimum, moderately heritable as well as economically important. The Linear Appraisal System includes 13 primary traits, one secondary trait, as well as structural categories scored by the appraiser to evaluate functional conformation on mature bucks and does."
Its rare for anything to get over a 93, because there are no perfect goats there will never be a score of a 100.
the A=acceptable E=excellent and V=very good Her V was due to her feet she has foundered in the past so they are not as good as they should be.
