AMERICAN ANGORA GOAT BREEDERS' ASSOCIATION

The American Angora Goat Breeders' Association located in Rocksprings, Texas, established in 1900, is primarily concerned with maintaining registration records showiing pedigree of all registered Angoras and to keep records of all transfers showing ownership on all such goats. Most commercial goats are purebred but not "registered". One must be careful when purchasiing commercial goats to insist that crossbred (Angoras crossed with milk goats or Spanish goats) goats are not being offered for sale. The mohair from crossbred goats is of lower quality, higher in "kemp" (fibers that do not take dye) and usually fewer pounds per goat. If you are purchasing registered goats be sure to deal with a reputable breeder or see the registration certificate and have it transferred to you... The American Angora Goat Breeder's Association is the only registry of pure bred Angora goats.
