ABGA Sanctioned Boer Goat Show

This year (2019), Montrose held what I believe was the first ABGA and JABGA Sanctioned Boer Goat Show at the Montrose County Fairgrounds.

The show started Saturday August 10, 2019 at 9:30 AM and went all day Saturday. Then it started again on Sunday August 11, 2019 at 9:30 AM and went until about 2:00 PM.

People came with some beautiful animals from all over the State of Colorado—even some from surrounding states like Utah and New Mexico.

Two very fine Judges were present. On Saturday the judge came from Texas and he remarked about how great it was to be in Colorado away from the intense heat that they were experiencing in Texas!

The judge on Sunday was from the eastern slope of Colorado. Both judges were very thorough and knowledgeable about the Boer Goat breed and the ABGA standards.

I met some very nice people, saw some beautiful goats and the best part was…I came home with a Wild Card, a Sunny Delight, and a Red Hot Pistol!

You can see these three made this show extra special for us here at Swan View Ranch!

Thank you to Tandy of Hunker Down Boer Goats in Ordway, Colorado (pictured with all three goats above) for these three beautiful does. Read more about them on the “Up and Coming Does” page and the Does page. We hope to have their babies to show off next winter.
