I am wanting to purchase a lionhead buck to breed with my lionhead doe. I posted in the genetics section about what colour I am wanting to achieve (BEW) in kits...but my question here is what to look for in a buck as far as physical appearance? Like body build, etc. I do not know much about the lionhead breed, and am trying to learn more, but does anyone here have any opinions for me? Thanks.

You should choose a buck that can improve upon your does faults.
If she has weak shoulders then get a buck with good ones
If her ears are too long them pick a buck with small ones
If her mane is outstanding then you may get away with a buck who's mane is not perfect but good enough.

Where in Ontario are you? I know a great former-BEW breeder in Kingston, and one in the Niagara region who I could get you in touch with, who would be more than happy to help you find/pick a BEW or Vienna buck for your doe.
