Robinett's Caprines started in the late 1970's as my daughter Michele's 4-H project in Sonoma County California, when she decided she no longer wanted to do the goats at age 16 I took them over and have been actively breeding and showing them for the past 30 years. I have also been an active ADGA dairy goat judge for the past 18 years which gives me an insight to the strengths and weaknesses of these animals. In 1997 my husband and I moved to Dover Arkansas with 40 head of Nubian's, but I continue to breed Nubian's using the California based genetics. I like the long, tall, Dairy style of Nubian with beautiful breed character and long pendulous ears both in my Americans and my Purebreds. Since moving to Arkansas we have done well showing at the Arkansas State Fair, we have received the Premier Breeder and Exhibitor awards all years we have shown.
