Got both breeds but hate the billys (how can any animal find peeing on their head attractive?)
so I am looking for nice stud goats or a way to AI them? anyone know.....I have the nubians covered (thanks Faithmead!!)

off the top of my head one of the togg committee is in wales not sure of the exact position.

AI for the boer should be a good option have a look on the boer website i know judith hall does AI.

Hi - definitely Judith and Tiff Hall for the Boer - or Nicola Knott also does AI. https://www.boer-goats.co.uk/index.html

how far away are you from Worcestershire - perhaps try Rob Grinnall in Kidderminster, he has a nice buck and may be able to help, I'm sure he won't mind me posting a link to his website. https://www.beechhay.com/

good luck

On the boer society it says there is one near Llanrwda, builth wells, and there are members at milford haven and tregaron, but can't work out if they have billys. I think Ty gwyn knows the one at Llanrwda.
