Biggest livestock deal in Kingdom

A Saudi businessman bought a white goat for a whopping SR13 million (Dh12.5 million) in the biggest livestock deal in the oil-rich Gulf Kingdom.

The owner said his male goat fetched that sum because it is one of the rarest and “most beautiful” goat breeds in the region.

“It was the largest single deal to involve the sale of a sheep in the Kingdom,” Arar newspaper said in a report from the Saudi capital Riyadh.

Each of those virile Saudi Islamic males must be planning to spend a fortune to spend a passionate night with that goat.

You’re going to give that poor goat self esteem issues.

It’s just that it’s such an inflated price. They obviously just want him because he’s all white. A really good Saanen buck with outstanding conformation and pedigree would go for about a grand here.

But they are white anyway? Maybe you should round up a few and sell them in Saudi?

Might have more to do with the devalued state of the money than the actual value of the goat.

Just google image “Saanen dairy goat”. We raised that breed for over 20 years. Been out of it (breeding for 4 years)our last girl Mira who was 10 sadly we had to have the vet out down a couple of weeks ago. Yep I could have made a bundle I suppose.

Saudi’s pay good money for white girls ... even if they ARE goats.

"Even" or "especially?"

“Is there inflation in the goat market?”

LOL!! By the way, could this mean special toilets at public universities to accommodate students having a goat preference?

A few mozlums went to DC today. Did they hear about this?
Are burkas for goats even made?

I am sure the Quaran allows marriage at any age, based on the 8-year-old bride that just died on her wedding night with a Muzzie.

I think it’s main selling features were the long eyelashes and short erect tail.


Nope. The image of allah beneath the tail.....
