Maggie's Acres

Maggie’s Acres fainting (myotonic) goats in Bloomer, WI, serves Chippewa County and the Chippewa Valley near Eau Claire. Owner Debbie S. Thon has cared for these goats for over a decade, maintaining registration through the American Dairy Goat Association and following recommended health screening protocols for hoof care and genetic conditions. Facilities include a ventilated barn with deep bedding, secure kidding pens, and year-round access to exercise runs for comfortable living in all seasons.

Kids are bottle-fed and socialized alongside the family’s farm dogs, with daily turnout on grass paddocks shaded by mature oak trees. The herd grazes rotationally on multi-species pasture to support natural foraging and hoof strength. Breeding selections emphasize sound structure, strong muscle tone and a friendly temperament. A recent visitor noted the goats’ calm, curious demeanor, reflecting the farm’s commitment to early handling and consistent attention.
