Welcome to Gotta B Kid N Nigerians ,
Showing is finished here in FL until the Fall. Our next planned show will be the St. John's Fair in October.
All goats over 6 months of age tested CAE Negative through Biotracking in July 2010.
I am planning the matings for next year's kids. I don't take reservations on kids, although if you have a particular interest in a breeding I will take your information and notify you if kids are available before they are posted to the sales page.
In Florida the American Dairy Goat Association sanctions the majority of the open shows as well as the 4-H or FFA shows held at the fairs and our goats are registered with ADGA accordingly.
Beyond just enjoying my goats as goats, I like the challenge of trying to breed an animal that will excel in the show ring. My breeding program is concentrated on that goal, and while I have made some progress, I still have a long way to go. Achieving that goal requires a lot of selective culling of goats, so I sell those that I feel are not going to be show prospects as pets without papers.
Before you buy,do your homework and learn what a good dairy goat looks like and buy that goat. Paying more money for a famous herd name can sometimes result in buying inferior goats with "known" herd names.

Happy Goating,
