From what I can see what happened with most of the anglos imported into the Philippines is frankly this.
people ran off to Australia buying anglos that they did not fully understand and did not do their homework fully.For an anglo to be a good dairy goat with a long lactation period comes from farms that can support records to prove such and are registered by a dairy authority.Dairy anglos are different from your average anglo in terms of body lenght and height,they have long cannon bones in their legs and have long necks.Look for does with not a high rump as high rumps may lead to kidding problems later in life.Be careful of parrots mouth as this is a fault and will be passed on to the offspring(s).Dairy anglos are bred for dairy unlike they relatives that seem to do better for the meat trade.As a dual purpose goat the anglo seems better suited for meat over dairy.It takes many many many years of selective breeding with the right genetics to produce dairy anglos with long lactions periods.

Even if you bought such an anglo and imported such a goat there is no insurance that goat will produce as well as where it came from especially into a totally different environment,takes time for any goat to adjust and adapt to its new environment.Once it has adapted then selective breeding over many many many years before one will realize the fruits of all your hard work.

The anglo has an important role in dairy Philippines but will take many dedicated people who are willing to spend time with the breed to breed this goat into something super.It will happen, but will take sometime before we will see top of the line anglos enter the commercial dairy numbers.The anglo has a future but needs selective breeding to bring this breed into commercial production.There are a few dedicated people willing to work with this breed to take it into the next phase of development.

anglo nubian means- still has english bloodline ties,most commonwealth countries still call them anglo nubians

nubian means-no longer with english ties,the USA can no longer refer to them as anglos but only nubians

once you breed an American nubian with an anglo nubian the offspring becomes nubian no longer anglo nubian.
