I just read something about this and of course now I can't find it. I believe that if two naturally hornless (or polled) goats are bred together their offspring are sterile. Which means that if this doe is bred to a buck who has, or would have had horns (had he not been disbudded) she should have no problems.Now if both of her parents(the hornless doe) are also naturally hornless then she would be sterile. Hopefully Vicki or Kay will double check my work here to be sure I got this right : )
