We were very pleased with the placings of the goats from Dixieland Acres. We are currently breeding for fall kids & hope to have more wethers available for next year's spring shows. We also have a couple wethers left for the Virginia State Fair or other fall 2010 shows. Contact us for more information, to see our available goats or to be put on a waiting list for next year's wethers.
