RSA

RSA is a Pygora goat breeder in Lysander, NY, part of central New York near Syracuse. Fran Bishop follows registry standards for fleece quality and temperament, ensuring all goats undergo regular health screenings for CAE, CL, Johne’s, and genetic disease testing. Its herd enjoys a pasture-based routine with rotation grazing, custom-built shelters, and daily hands-on socialization to foster calm, adaptable animals.

On its family-operated farm outside town, emphasis is placed on gentle handling, early kid enrichment, and detailed record-keeping of fiber traits from each doe and kid. Multiple fiber artists in the region note the soft drape, consistent crimps, and staple length of its Pygora fleeces when working on yarn and weaving projects. The farm often contributes fiber samples to local workshops and supports emerging spinners with guidance on fiber preparation. Prospective breeders appreciate RSA’s transparent updates on kidding schedules, color genetics, and kid development milestones.
