Kay Koppler, we are looking to start a herd here in NE Ohio and would be interested in aquiring some of those you are looking to downsize.

Kay Koppler, you can send me your info for the Breeder List. I'm currently keeping it up to date.

Would you be willing to share with me information on goats you have?
