Huh? This may be a dumb question but I've never owned Boers before so....docked tails? Does that mean that Boers have their tails cut off or trimmed as babies?

No, that is the way they come. No altering has been done.​

See, that's what I thought, cuz I had never heard of anyone docking goat tails but then my hubby saw this link and read the post that mentioned their tails 'already being docked' and he got all upset at the thought of the cute little goat tails being cut off.

Cute! we have around 50 boer/boer cross goats. The kids would be 87.50% boer but, they will round up to 88% on the papers.
