My Saanen is amazing, you couldn’t buy him from me for any amount of money. I live in Northern California and he does great under 85 degrees anything over he starts to show heat stress, but so do my Alpines. Saanens would be a great cross with the Boer. They have long legs, probably on average taller than any other goat besides a Nubian in my opinion. Lots of people complain about having white goats but I find it as an asset, it’s easy to see your goats at night and early mornings and I can quickly count all of my white boys my darker alpines and la mancha blend in so well. Plus the darker goats I feel could be more prone to being mistaken for a deer.
Saanens also are very quiet which is a big deal for me.
That being said if I could only have 1 breed of goat it would be a saanen. Alpine 2nd La Mancha a very close 3rd, some may not get very big. I am currently experimenting with a kilo alpine cross.
