Hall's Fainting Goats

Hall’s Fainting Goats, Fainting (Myotonic) goats, Vandalia, IL, in Southern Illinois near St. Louis, is a family-run homestead known for gentle, well-socialized stock. Kevin Hall has bred these goats for over a decade, with all animals undergoing regular health screenings for common hereditary conditions. Hall’s Fainting Goats follows a breeding protocol that prioritizes genetic diversity and resilience, registering each kid with the American Goat Society.

Kids are raised in clean pasture-based pens with daily handling to build trust and reduce stress. The homestead uses rotational grazing and seasonal shelter rotation to mimic natural foraging and promote strong immune systems. Hall provides detailed care guides and consults with new owners to support smooth transitions for kids adjusting to their surroundings. As a result, their goats adapt well to small herds and family farms, often noted for calm temperaments and sturdy builds during first evaluations.
