Jack & Anita Mauldin breeder of south african boer goats.

Welcome to Jack & Anita Mauldin's Boer goats, the home of "Ennobled" Genetics. ("Ennobled" is ABGA's label for "best of the best").

As of January, 2010, we have six different Boer goats from our farm that had become "Ennobled" in ABGA. See "Ennoblements".

This site focuses on sharing general Boer Goat information with other people raising Boer goats or meat goats and specific information about our Boer goat herd for sale for potential buyers in the meat goat industry.

Our farm is just outside of Ector, Texas. Ector is about 60 miles Northeast of Dallas, Texas. We raise registered fullblood Boer goats.

We have worked with people in 　IBGA, ABGA, AMGA, USBGA and other goat associations. We are impressed with the market potential for Reds and Paints in the Meat Goat Industry and the growth we are seeing and we are focusing more attention on increasing the reds and paints in our herds
