In Reply to: Goats and their weights posted by Helene on December 14, 2001 at 10:13:38:
Hi Helene, not sure were I heard this from but have heard that weight tape doesn't show the correct weight on boers or percentages. I'm not sure on this so if anybody knows differant please let me know. If it does work I will use it too, instead of weighing them on the scale the tape sounds alot easier. The weights you are giving do seem to be on the light side but then it could be the tape too. I think that a fullblood boer buck at 1 year should be around 100lbs. - 125lbs. See what others think I could be way off. They all look fine in your pictures on your site. Talk to ya later.
