Mysthaven

Mysthaven Mini LaMancha goats in Tecumseh, MO, Ozarks of Shannon County near Springfield are known for calm nature and health. Pepper Edwards has been developing the herd over several seasons, following caprine health screenings for CAE and CL and maintaining full registry records for each animal.

The goats graze on mixed pasture at sunrise and spend evenings in a ventilated barn, receiving daily handling to build trust and ease at novel settings. Mysthaven kids have placed well at local fairs, reflecting the emphasis on structure and sound confirmation passed down through careful selection.

Kids born in spring are gradually introduced to handling routines and pen environments, which helps them adapt calmly when they join new herds. Goats receive mineral-fortified hay and seasonal browse, combining nutrition with natural behaviors to promote sturdy legs and glossy coats. Each goat is weighed monthly and given hoof trims as needed, reflecting attention to long-term well-being. Shaded trees and fenced meadows provide shelter and safe exploration for the herd throughout all seasons.
