Raising Goats
- (Anglo)-Nubian is a breed developed in England from native goats and crossed with Indian and Nubian which have heavy arched ''Roman'' noses and long, drooping, pendulous ears, spiral horns and are shorthaired. They are leggy and as tall as Saanen, but produce less milk, though higher milk fat levels and are more fleshy. They are less tolerant of cold but do well in hot climates. They ''talk'' a lot, and are in numbers the most popular breed in USA and Canada. They have a tendency for triplets and quadruplets. They are horned or hornless and have many colors that may be ''Appaloosa''-like spotted.
