Taylor's Sweet Babies

Taylor’s Sweet Babies, fainting (myotonic) goats in Hannibal, MO, serves Northeast Missouri near St. Louis. Owned and operated by Cathy Pickett, the farm has been raising healthy, friendly goats for over a decade and holds membership in national goat breeders associations.

All breeding adults undergo genetic screening and participate in an annual herd health program overseen by a state-licensed veterinarian. Kids are raised in a pasture-based system with gentle handling and early socialization to encourage a calm temperament. Daily care includes routine hoof trimming and a balanced diet to support strong muscle development typical of the fainting breed.

Visitors often comment on the farm’s transparent tours and the approachable nature of the herd. Past customers have praised the clear communication about lineage and nutrition practices. Cathy is available to discuss the breed’s traits and suitability for homesteads or small farms.
