Morning Star Ranch

Morning Star Ranch breeds fainting (myotonic) goats in Waller, TX.
This family-run operation in Waller County and the Gulf Coast near Houston has been breeding these sturdy multipurpose goats for more than a decade, following recognized health testing and registry standards with American Dairy Goat Association and American Goat Society enrollment.

The herd grazes on rotational, clover-rich pasture and receives mineral supplementation to support hoof strength and milk yield.
Owner Janice Foster emphasizes early socialization, raising kids indoors for bonding before they join the main herd, and maintains quiet handling routines to foster calm behavior.
Facilities include covered loafing sheds and secure night pens that protect the goats from local weather extremes.

Visitors often note the bright eyes and gentle manner of the herd and appreciate the well-kept pens during farm tours held each spring.
The farm began as a small homestead and has grown alongside local family traditions, with each kid named and tracked for health milestones.
