Breed overview

Boer Goat across regions.

GoatsMeat

Boer is the dominant U.S. meat goat breed — fast growth, heavy muscling, excellent direct-marketing appeal. Parasite resistance is the primary management challenge, especially in the humid Southeast where Kiko genetics may be a better fit.

Does and wethers calm. BUCKS during rut develop strong scent ('musk'), aggressive behavior, and are dangerous to handle without proper facilities. Never enter a buck pen during rut without a barrier.
