Savannah goat info. please

Some of you here know I have been looking for some meat goats to get started with and was originally looking a the Boers as they seem to be the most popular and largest of the meat goats. I recently seen an add and it seems some Savannah cross goats will be coming up for sale soon. From everything I have read these are basically white Boers? Would a person still hve the problems with worms as I have been told the Boers have. Any info or opinion on this breed would be appreciated. I have read a good deal on them, but it is always nice to hear from someone who actually has some first hand experience with them.
Thanks for your reply.

I really wish I could help you.
I want to incorporate Savannas in my heard.
I have talked with a couple of farmers that have them and they all are crazy about them but have none for sale.
I talked with owner of Carolina Savannas
http://southerngoatproducers.org/wordpress/?page_id=787 Wayne. But they raise SavannaxSpanish cross and have no purebreds, purebloods.
Have also talked with a couple of others within about 400 mi of S. Ga. but can't find much for now. Hopefully next spring I can find some and I will be more prepared for them too.
