He's beautiful, Dave. I love his shoulder and brisket. You don't usually see chests like that on Alpines. It's one reason I like crossing in Nubians. He also looks a lot like Legion. What's his name?
Dave is also very right about almost all packgoats coming from dairy genetics. Some breeders are crossing in Boer and Kiko, but not most. I'm personally not a fan of Boer conformation. I like what I see in the Kikos but I prefer to stick to dairy breeds so I can register my does with ADGA and sell them to people who want milkers. If they were crossbred with meat breeds that's what they'd sell for and I put too much time and love into my babies to let them go for meat.
