My Saanen/Alpine doe just gave birth to a large boy that I am considering keeping to train as a pack goat. The doe is very sweet, calm and quiet. The dad is a Nubian/Boer and endlessly calls from that barn. I've been told this is fairly typical of Nubians and Nubian crosses.
Given the new boy is only 1/4 Nubian do you think that behaviour would continue forward into him? Is this a behaviour that cannot be trained out?
As it stands right now I only have 1 other buckling and he is Boer/Nubian and will be raised for meat.
