However, all this depends on the breed and each individual bull. Some breeds that are later maturing (typically Continentals), like Charolais, Simmental, Limousin or Salers, won't start showing puberty until they're around 12 to 16 months of age.
For larger breeds, breed 'by weight'; 70-85lbs, usually between 7-9months of age. Other breeds, such as the Nigerian dwarf or Pygmy, can be bred after 9 months, but it is always better for them to kid before 2yrs of age. For bucks, they're 'able' by 8-10weeks for most goats, but it is better to wait till the goat is 3-4months old before using him.
