5. Boer
Boer goat got the first place among meat breeds and you will see why!
This breed was developed by crossing Angora, Indian and European goats in South Africa. Its name comes from the Dutch word ‘boer’ which means farmer. It is primarily meat goat, it has floppy ears and horns as well. It needs very low maintenance so, which is why it takes the 5th place on our list of easiest goat breeds to raise. The weight of a boer buck is between 110-130 kg (!) while the ewes are between 90 and 100 kg.
