Myotonic (Fainting) Goats
Myotonic Goats, also known as Fainting Goats, Tennessee (Meat) Goats, Nervous Goats, Stiff-leg Goats, Wooden-leg Goats, and Tennessee Fainting Goats have a muscle condition identified as myotonia congenita. They do not truly "faint" because they never lose consciousness. Myotonia congenita is a painless condition found in many species including humans, and is strictly muscular, not involving the brain or nerves. This breed is listed as "recovering" by The Livestock Conservancy of which we are members, as well as the Myotonic Goat Registry (MGR), and The International Fainting Goat Association (IFGA). Please check them out for more information.

Miniature Silky Fainting Goats
Don't be fooled by the name Miniature Silky Fainting Goat. The name does not mean that every Miniature Silky faints, but they must have a soft coat that feels silky when touched. An ideal Miniature Silky resembles a Silky Terrier dog. Our Miniature Silkies are registered with the Miniature Silky Fainting Goat Association (MSFGA). For more MSFGA information click the link below.

Goats DO NOT do well by themselves. If you do not have goats already please don't buy just one. They are herd animals and need a buddy to be with if they are going to thrive.

At this time we only accept cash and personal checks. If paying by personal check the balance is due 2 weeks prior to the pickup date. If your goat is not picked up on the date agreed upon there will be a $2/day boarding fee payable in cash only prior to goat(s) being loaded.

You will also receive copies of registration papers. This does not include any testing, vet exam, or health certificate. These may be done at the buyer's expense.
We reserve the right to refuse sale to anyone for any reason at any time.
