Would a LaMancha/fainting goat make a good dairy goat?
Okay, so I am trying to get into dairy for 4-H and FFA and I already have a Nigerian Dwarf/Nubian cross for dairy, but I need to get a companion goat. One of my friends is offering me a great deal on 2 does. One is a purebred LaMancha and one is a LaMancha/Fainting goat cross. My question is would the LaMancha/fainting goat cross be an Okay dairy goat. I realize that Fainting goats are a meat goat, but I was wondering if it was crossed with LaMancha if it would make it a good dairy goats. Any help will be appreciated.
PS. she has not been bred before, but has been 100% grass fed all its life.

It's possible. There's really no way to know if she will be a good milker until you actually milk her and see her production.

Well they are dairy goats, (The La Mancha) so i woundnt see why not. The fainting goat though im not sure because those were mainly used if predator attacked so they would get eaten and not the other goats.
