Can't a girl just catch a break!? I have been looking high and low for a pygmy doe/doeling that is hornless. I am on cape cod,..and I don't expect to find it next door, but geesh I can't seem to find one anywhere within reasonable travel time. I even called the 4h and they said not really a sought after breed, so not many to be found. Should it be this hard to find? is it because they are not really sought after?

If you are talking pygmy goats, they are big in Ohio. You could find plenty of farms around here. What about Nigerian Dwarfs? I know they aren't exactly the same but maybe you could find one of those near you. :idunno

Have you checked on the NPGA website for breeders closer to you?

I am running into the same problem in Southcentral PA. I have been looking for a registered pygmy buck. Seems like everyone wants to sell me dwarfs instead and keeping the pygmies to themselves. LOL!
