J & A Ranch

J & A Ranch raises goats in Tennyson, TX in West Texas near San Angelo. With more than ten years of breeding experience, John Patton conducts routine health screenings and ensures all animals receive appropriate vaccinations. The goats graze on open pastures by day and settle into well-ventilated barns at night, benefiting from daily social interaction, dry bedding, and natural forage. This pasture-based approach supports strong hoof health and promotes steady coat development.

Established on family land since 2010, the ranch balances traditional husbandry with mindful care practices. Visitors often comment on the goats’ calm temperament and sturdy build during seasonal kidding events. Animals destined for show or companionship are handled gently from birth to foster trust and resilience. The herd size is kept manageable to allow individual attention to each goat’s needs.
