Flint Creek Fainters

Flint Creek Fainters, fainting (myotonic) goats in Westpoint, IN, serve West central Indiana and the Lafayette area near Lafayette. Michael A Ford has been breeding fainting (myotonic) goats for over a decade, following guidelines from national goat associations and ensuring each animal undergoes routine health screenings and genetic evaluations. Goats grow up on open pasture punctuated by well-sheltered loafing sheds, with daily turnout, regular handling and access to wooded areas and stream banks for natural browsing.

Socialization with family pets and early exposure to varied terrain are part of a gentle handling approach aimed at building trust and resilience. Visitors to the 8704 W 510 S farm often comment on the herd’s calm temperament, a quality carefully managed through selective breeding and consistent daily routines. Local customers appreciate the straightforward communication and support with goat husbandry advice as their herds settle into new homes.
