We are in the process of updating our 2011-2012 Breedings lists as well as the current does and bucks on the farm.  Please be patient and keep checking back for updates! We have a creative and conscientious breeding program at Cherry Glen, and are proud of our show-quality herd.  Peruse the lists to see our breeding program.  Each doe page also has corresponding breeding information.  This year, we are particularly interested in selling buck kids, though we will have some doe kids for sale.  Because we consider only a limited number of special requests, please first check the website for current information.
