My New Buck!
I can't believe it! We finally took the plunge, and bought our first buck, a FB Boer. I am so afraid I am going to make a mistake with him, but I guess you have to start somewhere...

His registered name is 5T23, but the poor soul can't go around with a name like that. So we have named him Wolfgang Buck. : )

He's a fall 2005 buck, so he's still young.

Here's his picture:

Oh, and for those of you who gave me great advice on the CL thread, thanks. Wolfie is from a CL free herd, and he is also CL free-- (he was tested).

He is a handsome fellow. I love the "tomohawk" on his head - his blaze. Congratulations.

Wow, congrats!! He looks good, wide, deep and a lot of rear-end! He should produce some good meat kids for you.
