TexMasters™

I began raising Myotonic goats in 1990.  Around 1992-1993, Boers came into the USA from New Zealand.   In 1994, I decided to see what all the excitement was about, so I ordered a Boer buck and two Boer does from New Zealand.  When they arrived, I was appalled.  As they were unloaded, I said out loud, " You goats are crap, but you are here  to stay because you've generated interested in goats, and I'm going to improve upon you."  I took the two Boer does and bred my Tennessee Meat Goat™ bucks to them.   The F-1 cross was much better than the Boers themselves but nowhere near as meaty as my TMG's,  so I began removing Boer influence from the mix as it quickly became evident that "Boer" took the meat off the offspring.

After multiple generations of cross-breeding and heavy culling, I trademarked this new breed as  TexMaster™.    TexMaster™ has been breeding "true" for a very long time and is my breed contribution to the commercial meat-goat industry.
