Golden Ivy Goats

Golden Ivy Goats breeds fainting (myotonic) goats in Troy, NC, Montgomery County and Sandhills near Fayetteville. Ashley Michelle Poole has been raising fainting goats on a small family farm, following American Dairy Goat Association guidelines with regular health screenings for common herd issues. Each goat enjoys daily free-range grazing, gentle handling from birth and a mix of pasture and shelter access to support robust growth. The farm maintains a close-knit herd that benefits from socialization routines designed to foster calm temperaments around children and other livestock.

Golden Ivy Goats traces its origins to preservation efforts for heritage lines, combining old-world genetics with practical husbandry. Poole nurtures each kidding season with enriched bedding and balanced foraging to promote strong bone development and digestive health. Community feedback often highlights the goats’ steady dispositions and resilience, reflecting the farm’s care-first approach.
