Rusty Can Animal Farm

Rusty Can Animal Farm is home to fainting (myotonic) goats in Spencer, TN, on the Cumberland Plateau near Knoxville. It participates in regional agricultural networks and maintains detailed records to trace lineage, genetic screenings and health history for every animal. The farm collaborates with a local veterinarian on vaccination protocols, routine screenings and adheres to established breed standards throughout the herd.

Its goats enjoy up to eight hours of daily pasture access under rotational grazing, structured socialization and sturdy fencing designed for safety. A family-run homestead approach ensures that youngsters receive individual handling from the day they arrive, fostering trust and confidence. A focus on sustainable forage management, hoof and joint health creates a stable environment throughout the seasons. Al Johnson applies decades of practical experience to adapt husbandry practices meeting each animal’s unique needs. This careful, hands-on approach supports calm temperaments and contributes to the herd’s overall well-being.
