What's this goat?
I know the parentage of this goat, but I think it is one of the oddest genetic outcomes I have ever had. All four grandparents were purebred animals, but three of them are of one breed and the fourth was another breed. Name the two breeds, and you get bonus points for getting the 75%/25% breeds correct.

ok, I can't really bring my mind around your post (long day at school!!)
I say three are boers and 1 is nubian. If so she is 75% Boer and 25% Nubian...
NOW SAY IT SHES HALF TOGGENBURG OR SOME OTHER DAIRY BREED!!!

I'm guessing 75% LaMancha/25% Nubian.
She's a looker, for sure!

I feel like that head screams lamancha--I was going to make the same guess as Laura and nehi, but since that's not right... 75% lamancha, 25% boer?

okay, I could not figure out why Lamancha was being guessed, must be her head? Well, she has no Lamancha genes in her any more guesses? I'll be back tomorrow..
