Online Pedigrees Update
The Online Pedigrees are UPDATED!
Contact kindergoatbreeders@gmail.com if you see something that isn’t correct and we will look into it.
Please remember that the online pedigrees are completely separate from the registry so if there is an error or your goat is missing from the online search it does NOT affect your goat’s registry status.
Have fun!
