If you have 50+ goats having kids then reality says some will go for meat …. you cant possibly breed that many year on year and expect to find 'pet' homes for them all.   Unless they are pedigree and good enough breeding for showing.

I might be interested depending on breed and whereabouts-  I'm based in Warwickshire so roughly how far would I be from you? X
