Frenchy's Fainters

Frenchy's Fainters, fainting (myotonic) goats in Bedford, VA, across Bedford County and the Blue Ridge Mountains near Lynchburg. Kelly French follows recognized breeding guidelines with health screenings for genetic traits and parasite management taught by the local cooperative extension. Animals are raised on a mixed-pasture system with shelter access and receive daily attention to diet and social enrichment. The herd is handled gently from an early age to promote a calm temperament suited for small farms and family settings.

Local homesteaders have noted the goats’ sturdy build and friendly disposition as a welcome addition to their operations. Their foundation stock is selected for sound hoof structure and strong musculoskeletal conformation to support long-term herd health. Kids are weaned and vaccinated according to veterinary schedules, and prospective owners receive detailed care guidelines with each sale. Kelly French grew up on a multigenerational homestead and values the fainting goat’s role as a hardy, low-maintenance breed.
