Note: "Capricopia" is a TM, registration pending, of Capricopia Farm, owned by Donald Knight and Jason Biddle of Louisa, VA. REDGA was unaware of the use of "Capricopia" as a herd name when it was selected for the ADGA meeting in 2006. We appreciate the understanding and support of Capricopia Farm with the 2008 ADGA Annual Meeting.
