From USBGA judges handbook:
The does should have a well-formed mammary system. It should have good attachment with no more that two separated functional teats per side. Ideally does should have one functioning teat per side. The bucks should have two large well-formed equal sized testes in a single scrotum. The apex of the scrotum should have a split no longer than 1 inch (2.5 cm). Circumference of the scrotum varies with age. A yearling buck should have a circumference of 10 inches (25. cm) a two year old buck should have a circumference of 12 inches (30.5 cm). Teat structure on bucks should consist of no more that separated teats per side. The ideal is one teat per side.
Slight to Serious Defects
1. Testicles that twist when buck walks
2. Double (2) orifices in a non split teat
Very Serious Defects
1. More than two teats per side on a doe
2. Small or abnormal testicles
3. Scrotal split more than 1 inch (2.5 cm)
Disqualifying Defects
1. More than two teats per side on bucks
2. Split teat with two distinctly separated milk ducts divided less than 75% on bucks/does
3. Bunched or cluster teats on buck/does
The South African Boer goat breed standards given above are complete as written. However, these breed standards may be revised as necessary to adequately describe the true breed characteristics of the Boer as the breed evolves.
