Sunshine Acres

Sunshine Acres fainting goats in Portland, TN, in Sumner County near Nashville began raising myotonic goats in 2010. The herd receives regular veterinary examinations and follows a vaccination plan suited to myotonic goats. Animals are raised in pasture with shelter from weather and regular handling for calm temperaments.

Kids live alongside adult goats in a dedicated nursery paddock with sturdy shelter and daily supervised pasture time. Rotational grazing on fenced paddocks supports pasture health, balances soil nutrients, and encourages natural foraging behavior across seasons. Visitors comment that the animals’ calm demeanor under new stimuli and their strong bone structure reflect careful attention to breeding goals. Owner Georgia Corkins draws on years of hands-on livestock care, combining tradition with practical insights for raising healthy myotonic goats. A simple newsletter shares seasonal herd updates and care tips, helping new owners feel informed about best practices in goat husbandry.
