Triple M's Lil Fainters

Triple M’s Lil Fainters raises fainting (myotonic) goats in Hermitage, MO, southwestern Missouri near Springfield. Melinda Redding has over a decade of experience breeding these gentle goats, and is a member of the American Goat Society with annual health screenings for each herd member. All breeding stock undergoes regular genetic testing for myotonia, and Melinda keeps detailed records to monitor lineage and wellness metrics.

The goats live in spacious pastures with sheltered loafing barns, where they enjoy daily social interaction and supervised pasture rotation to encourage strong joints and balanced diets. Melinda’s approach focuses on calm temperaments and easy handling, reflecting the farm’s heritage and hands-on husbandry practices. Recent champions from the herd have earned ribbons at state fairs, and feedback from neighbors highlights the goats’ friendly dispositions and robust health. Visitors often note the relaxed atmosphere and attentive care that define life on the farm.
