Question Boer paints

How many of you prefer paint boers? What are the pros & cons as far as marketing? Are there registry differences?

In my Boer experience, paints always sold better because they are pretty. Of course the smart buyer will choose a better quality traditional over a lesser quality paint. So as with all things, make sure you breed quality not just colour. But quality paints, there was always a market for in my experience.
Registries are the same. Both USBGA and ABGA accept paints.

From what i seen in my area, Paint bucks of any type sell for alot more than the average standard type. I met a guy over the weekend and his wife is trying to breed boer's & cross's for the painted boer look.
