For example I am looking for Alpine bucks with at least 30 in strength and 35 in dairiness?

There is no way through the UI to AND traits and values at this time. It would be a nice feature addition though. What I would also like to see and might be of more value would be to establish some composite traits like general appearance, dairy character, feet and legs, mammary, etc. as a way to make it easier to rank based on grouping and weighting linear traits. This would take some work and direction from the dairy goat community.

Thanks for the quick reply and confirmation that I was not missing something in the UI.
You say "This would take some work and direction from the dairy goat community. "
How does this happen? What can I do to help?
I think this would really help people with buck selection and improving LA scores.

You might want to talk with Lisa Shepard at ADGA about this. Also there are ADGA committees like Sire Development and Type that might have jurisdiction to do something like composite traits or indices.

OK - thanks - I live very close to the ADGA office so maybe I'll take a trip over then (I have some registrations to drop off anyway) or see if I can find some people at the Convention.
