Origin: 
This breed is the oldest Egyptian breed in Upper Egypt. It is similar in general appearance to the Baladi goat of the Delta region, except that it has larger head and bigger body frame. It is believed to have the genetic influence of Sudanese goats from the south of its home area and hence expected to have better tolerance to high temperatures.
