Just wondering my Nigerian doeling aameerah is 9 months and weighs 30lbs but doesn't look thin she seems to be more petite in build. I have attached a photo of her pedigree

In that pedigree, there are three GCH bucks, three GCH does and one SG doe. A couple have LA scores of 91, a couple have 90, and a couple have 84, with the rest in the upper 80's. Seems like a nice pedigree. I wouldn't suspect there would be a tendency to grow slowly. (At the same time, I have to admit that I am basically ignorant in this area of genetics.)

In the photo that has human legs my 8 year old nephew is holding her

Buttin Heads I would say are slower maturing animals
Caesars Villa are usually shorter in stature

I would say that was a generalization though
Always exceptions
I had a Buttin Heads buck ( sadly killed in an accident ) Fortunato
Shares some lineage with your goat
One of his daughters is tiny
A little over 40 lbs at 18 months old
I have 6 month old kids bigger than her
But some of his other kids very growthy
