Karen Gooden

Karen Gooden is a goat breeder in Oklahoma, southcentral Oklahoma near Oklahoma City. She has over a decade of experience working with herds registered with the American Dairy Goat Association and follows recommended health testing protocols for does and bucks.

Her herd is raised on rotational pasture, with daily health checks and early-life handling to promote cooperative, well-mannered animals. Young goats spend time in the family barn alongside children, learning to engage with humans before they join home or farm environments.

Reviews from area buyers often mention the goats’ calm disposition and adaptability on diverse pasture types. Kidding season is managed to ensure does and kids receive individualized attention, and records are kept for lineage and performance.
