Creekside Farm

Creekside Farm, Fainting (Myotonic) goats, Bennett, NC, in the Piedmont region near Greensboro, offers gentle homesteading stock for small farms. Owned by Dalton Suits, this family-run farm has been breeding fainting goats for more than a decade and maintains membership in the American Dairy Goat Association. All adults receive regular veterinary checkups, disease screening and parasite management.

The herd grazes on rotational pasture with access to shelters and a simple barn, where daily handling helps kids learn to trust people. This approach supports the breed’s natural calm disposition and adaptability to diverse small farm settings. Kids are bottle-fed in the barn, socialized daily and accustomed to living alongside older does and bucks. Several of their animals have won ribbons at local fairs for conformation and temperament. Their breeding stock emphasizes sturdy feet and udder quality, traits important for both show and home dairy use.
