For the first five weigh periods, this buck has gained 0.08, 0.333, 0.214, 0.571 and 0.286 lbs. per day for a 70-day average of 0.304 lbs. (138 g) per day.

At the end of the test, the top 20 bucks will be determined by evaluating growth performance (ADG), parasite resistance (fecal egg counts), and parasite resilience (FAMACHA© scores and number of anthelmintic treatments).
To be eligible to sell, top performing bucks must also meet minimum standards for structural correctness and reproductive soundness. A committee will evaulate the goats for structural correctness: feet, legs, shoulders, pasterns, etc.
Ultrasound carcass data, number and structure of teats, and scrotal circumference and splits will also be reported.
