As more and more of our herds participate in DHI production testing and Linear Appraisal, Nigerian Dwarfs are showing up in the ADGA genetics database. This year (2010) the first Nigerians have reached the benchmarks for a Superior Genetics designation. Details of the program can be found on the ADGA Website .

Congratulations to our FIRST Nigerian Dwarfs with Superior Genetics Status.
