Bucks, what's the difference?




I got asked today if a buck was suspicious as to breed because he was so much different from the does the owner had.  The short answer is "no".  Nubian bucks are so different from their female counterparts...larger, coarser, thicker, stinkier and hairier.  They are Nubian goats on steroids...literally. 

The little guy is a six month old and you can see as he stands next to a two year old doe, that he is much hairier...the second picture is Rocky and again even though the grass is still green, he's much hairier with almost a mane of hair towards his withers.
