Sable Saanen Goats are descended
from Saanen goats brought to America by Europeans. In 2005, the Sable was
recognized as a separate breed. Before they were recognized as a separate
breed, they were often culled. They are color variations of Saanens due to a
recessive gene; they are sometimes referred "the Saanens in party
clothes".
Sables can come in a variety of colors,
including black, brown, and grey. They may have white colorings, but are not
permitted to be solid white, as that would be no different from a normal
Saanen. Sables are recognized by the American Dairy Goat Assiocation (ADGA).
