Shady Oak Ranch

Shady Oak Ranch, fainting (myotonic) goats, Sharpsburg, KY, Woodford County and the Bluegrass region near Lexington.
Stacey L. Mabe is a dedicated breeder who emphasizes health and temperament in every goat, and she follows principles of responsible stewardship. She adheres to recognized club standards and supports routine health screenings, including genetic testing for common concerns. All breeding stock undergoes regular fecal exams, vaccinations, and hoof trimming to maintain overall wellness. Goats live in spacious pastures with daily handling to encourage calm interactions; rotational grazing helps manage forage quality, and each pen is equipped with sturdy shelters.

As a family-operated farm with deep roots in rural Kentucky, it maintains transparent breeding records and welcomes prospective owners to observe farm routines. Visitors often note the calmness of the young goats during weaning and early handling, a reflection of attentive care. The ranch’s emphasis on pasture-fed nutrition supports sturdy development, consistent health, and natural grazing behaviors.
