Rezlav Farm

Rezlav Farm, fainting (myotonic) goats, Lowell, IN in Lake County and the Chicago metro area puts careful breeding at the heart of every herd. Miranda Retzlaff has been devoted to these goats for several seasons and maintains clear records aligned with national herd-book practices. Each kid is raised on open pastures with daily health checks, hoof care, and gentle early handling to support friendly, calm temperaments.

The farm’s approach blends traditional husbandry with modern welfare standards, ensuring goats live in well-ventilated shelters at night and graze freely by day. They follow a schedule of vaccinations and routine veterinary check-ups, and their feed includes locally sourced hay and mineral supplements. Whether for small-scale fiber projects or as docile companions, every animal reflects the farm’s focus on robust conformation and ease of handling. Visitors often note the goats’ steady nature during farm tours.
