We are proud to bring a 100% CODI / PCI herd to the state of Montana!
What is CODI / PCI? - (Credit many different web sites for this info)
The name CODI / PCI represents the first 400 Boer goats imported to the United States. Jurgen Shultz and 4 friends invested considerable time and money in attaining them from Africa. These goats are the very best South Africa had to offer after decades or breeding. Jurgen Schultz owned an export company named Camelids of Delaware, Inc (CODI) and the Pet Center International (PCI) was in charge of the customs processing, thus the goats were dubbed CODI / PCI. They were shipped to the US and held in quarantine in Key West, FL before they eventually ended up at the Jurgans Ranch in Lampases, TX. In 1996, Jurgan dispersed the herd. Those original CODI / PCI goats are responsible for producing some of the finest Boer goats in the world. Most of the original imports are now deceased. Others have become so outcrossed that their style, character and conformation have been nearly lost. The true CODI / PCI goats today sell for high dollars and always at a premium if you are fortunate enough to find a full CODI / PCI buck or doe. These Boers are known for their breeding characteristics and especially for their ability to produce in kind generation after generation. CODI / PCI goats are also more disease and patasite resistant, heavier milkers, and better mothers, and babies show more vigor and hardiness at birth. Very notable direct imported full CODI / PCI Boers include ENNOBLED Kaptein, ENNOBLED Tsjaka, ENNOBLED Lobola (Pipeline's mother) and ENNOBLED 519. With this type of record it is easy to see why so many of the world's best Boer goats are from CODI / PCI seed stock and their offspring. With CODI / PCI genetics in your herd, you have a more consitant quality of goats.
How do you tell if they are CODI / PCI?
Your registration papers may tell you. The original live imports will have TX630... in the numbers. Their offspring born during quarantine start with TX631... South Africa Stud # 994... 915... 914... 911... are some of the sires and dams of the original imported CODI / PCI goats.
We have purchased 4 Full CODI / PCI does and 1 Full CODI / PCI buck from J & B Colored Boers in Lovelady, TX.
SB1 OBA Tate (ABGA #10305661)
Above is our new buck SB1 OBA Tate (DOB 03/06/05). We have nicknamed him "Tater" as in "Tater Salad" (Ron White). Tate is the most mild mannered, kindest buck we have ever been around. He is a deep mahogany red with some black throughout his body. Tate is one of only 4 living sons/daughters (and one of only two bucks) of SB1 Mr. CODI Black, the only solid black 100% full CODI / PCI Boer to ever exist. Tate represents the best of traits you want in a herdsire. He has thick bone and muscle, nice Roman head, beautiful horn set, correct bite, and excellent breed character. The top pic was ~UPDATED 06-21-08~ and the bottom pic, appropriately titled "Dad? Son?" shows him across the fence from his son "Little Man Tate" (Bucks page) who bears such a resemblance you would swear he was a clone vs. a progeny.
Rowdy River Ranch CODI Turbo Diesel (ABGA #10431286)
Above is "Turbo" (DOB 05/10/08). He was the only 100% full CODI/PCI born in the 2008 kid crop. Sire is SB1 OBA Tate (pictured above) and dam is SB1 CODI Painted Girl II (pictured below). If you look closely, you can see that his hair has black roots. We believe he will color out to be jet black. For this reason, we are keeping him, at least for a year. If he does turn black, he will be only the second solid black full CODI/PCI goat to ever exist and the only one alive today. He weighed in at 10.13lbs at birth. ~UPDATED PIC 06-22-08~
CODI Haley Jane (ABGA #10270547)
Above is CODI Haley Jane (DOB 01/04/05). Haley is a nice looking doe, and if you look closely, you can see her beard! Haley has DSM 3B243 SA (grandson of Kaptein **Ennobled 08/1999**) on the top side and SB1 CODI Sue Annde (granddaughter of NBBG Renoir *Ennobled 08/2003*) on the bottom. We are thrilled to have her as a foundation full CODI / PCI doe. (Picture above taken 10-09-07).
CODI Black's Little Girl (ABGA #10333300)
Above is CODI Black's Little Girl (DOB 03/09/05). Little Girl is a nice doe and has been the one to warm up to us the quickest. Little Girl has SB1 Mr. CODI Black (the only solid black 100% full CODI/PCI Boer go ever exist) on the topside and SB1 Nurse CODI SA (pictured below) on the bottom. We plan to use her as an A.I. candidate, and since she has a black father, we hope she will add some solid black or black paint babies to our "color scheme" here at the ranch! (Picture above taken 10-09-07).
SB1 CODI Painted Girl II (ABGA #10208019)
Above is SB1 CODI Painted Girl II (DOB 06/01/03). Paited Girl is also a nice doe with a long body, thick bone, nice head, and great hornset. She has BZ1 10137660 BZ1 P4R on the top side and SB1 10202761 SB1 CODI Beall SA on the bottom. BZ1 P4R is a NBBG Renoir *Ennobled 08/2003* son, making Painted Girl a Renoir granddaughter. We are thrilled to have her as a foundation full CODI / PCI doe. (Picture above taken 10-09-07).
ETCG CODI Hotti Totti (ABGA #10405999)
Above is Hotti (DOB 10-17-07). Her sire is SB1 OBA Tate(10305661) pictured above and her dam is SB1 Nurse CODI SA (10333299). Her color is traditional with somewhat of a mixture of charcoal black and chocolate brown on her head and partial cape. Hotti has developed into quite a nice looking doe, she has length that just doesn't quit! ~UPDATED PIC 06-21-08~
Again, we cannot thank Joey and Becky Anderson of J&B Colored Boers enough for allowing us to purchase these wonderful animals. We wish them the best of luck since deciding to retire from the Boer goat business.
