Shalynn Goat Ranch

Shalynn Goat Ranch breeds fainting (myotonic) goats in Lamesa, TX, Dawson County in the South Plains near Lubbock. The ranch has cared for myotonic goats over multiple seasons and follows health screening protocols recommended by regional and national goat associations.

Daily routines include rotational grazing across native pastures and individual monitoring of herd health in a climate-adjusted barn. Founder Shane Lester focuses on early socialization so that goats are accustomed to gentle handling and varied farm environments. The family-run operation draws on local ranching traditions to balance natural foraging with attentive, small-scale management.

Kids are raised on site during the spring kidding season, which supports steady herd development and predictable offspring schedules. Detailed records track parentage, vaccination history and growth milestones, reflecting the ranch’s commitment to transparency. Scheduled visits give newcomers a chance to observe daily routines and learn about myotonic goat care in a working ranch setting.
