Thanks everyone!

I just couldn't resist. A beautiful profile with spots to top off the look. His pedigree should compliment Bries as well. I can't wait to see what we get from him this spring.

I can see why you couldn't resist. Thank goodness I am not raising Nubians, I would have to fight you for him. He is gorgeous. Also a good thing Alpines and LaManchas don't come with spots like that...I would be sunk. Eye candy and good structure, you got a good one.

I wonder if I could breed a spotted buck to a black doe and get spots? Granted they would be Grade but oh...the spots. It seems in my herd that Chamoisee and broken Chamoisee are the norm for my Alpines. That color pattern must had a strong gene. Since Alpines can be any color and pattern except for Toggenburg brown or solid white I want spots. :drool

My new kid sees Brie, his new girlfriend, walking back to the pen after milking and he makes the quietest little sound! Awww! He has done it twice so far. He seems to recognize the shape, gate, or maybe it is just something about her! Glad he likes her from a distance. He is still really shy, but has come and sniffed my hand a couple times.
