Introduction
-- The
Pygora®,
a
fleece
producing
goat,
was
originally
created
by
crossing
a
registered
American
Angora
Goat
Breeders
Association
(AAGBA)
goat
with a
registered
National
Pygmy
Goat
Association
(NPGA)
goat.
This
first
cross
is
considered
a
first
generation
(F1)
cross
and is
so
marked
as an
F1 on
its
registration
papers.
The
second
generation
is
considered
the
true
Pygora.
The
Pygora
can be
bred
to
other
Pygoras
or
back
to an
NPGA
or
AAGBA
animal
but
the
ratio
is not
to
exceed
75% of
either
parent
breed
(pygmy
or
angora).
All
Pygora
goats
must
have
fleece
as
described
in the
Breed
Standard
of PBA.
