Lnl's Farm

Lnl’s Farm raises fainting (myotonic) goats in Bois D’Arc, Missouri, in southwest Missouri near Springfield. Owner Frank Lavoie, a lifelong goat enthusiast, follows recommended health testing protocols, participates in recognized goat registries, and keeps detailed lineage records for each herd member. The goats are housed in well-ventilated barns with soft bedding and granted daily access to rotating pastureland, ensuring physical fitness and digestive health, while kids receive gentle socialization from day one.

A focused breeding program balances preservation of the fainting trait with selection for structural soundness and resilience, reflecting the original farm’s commitment to heritage genetics. Local hobby farmers appreciate the open sharing of husbandry insights and detailed health records, a level of transparency that supports trust in the breeding program. Set on 50 acres of rolling fields, the operation integrates rotational grazing and forage cultivation to maintain pasture quality throughout the seasons.
