Wild Ass Acres

Wild Ass Acres, fainting (myotonic) goats, Southwold, ON, is set in Elgin County and Southwestern Ontario near London. The farm is managed by Pam Hutchinson, who has bred goats for many seasons and follows relevant national goat association guidelines. Each animal undergoes regular health screenings, including CAE and CL testing, to ensure a hardy herd. Animals live in open pastures with access to shelter and fresh water, and they are introduced to daily handling routines from an early age.

The farm’s approach blends traditional stewardship with gentle socialization, and young goats often bond with visitors during milking time. Pasture rotation and natural forage form the basis of nutrition here, supporting strong bones and steady growth. This focus on care and consistency has earned praise from local vets and neighbors for the herd’s calm temperament and healthy condition. Hutchinson often shares insights on goat care with nearby farmers at local workshops.
