Miniature Silky Fainting Goats

If we didn’t live venturously, plucking the wild goat by the beard, and trembling over precipices, we should never be depressed, I’ve no doubt; but already should be faded, fatalistic and aged.
— Virginia Woolf

Miniature Silky Fainting Goats are a unique new breed of goats.  A long flowing coat, top knots, and beards are the ideal look of a Mini Silky.  One has only to look at the canine breed - Silky Terrier - to get the idea.  Mini Silkies are not required to faint, but Myotonic (fainting) goats are the foundation of this breed, with a few older lines of Nigerian Dwarf goats sprinkled in here and there.

All of our goats are registered with the Miniature Silky Fainting Goat Association (MSFGA).

They are tested and negative for CL (Caseous Lymphadenitis), CAE (Caprine Arthritis Encephalitis), and Johne’s disease. Goats are regularly treated with CDT and wormed as needed based on fecal examination.

All are 100% fainters. Moreover, they are all loved and spoiled beyond belief!!

2026 Kids Are Arriving!

It's an exciting breeding season for us! Ok, I say that every year. Except this year I mean it for a completely different reason. This year we have a robust YouTube channel running, I have grand plans of more videos of babies, and better viewing ability as they develop. I have six amazing does carrying precious cargo, all sired by our bestest guy, BIS MCH Bear Creek Phineas. Phineas carries blue eyes, each and every kid this season has the potential to be blue eyed. And of course he has the most amazing coat, with the potential to pass that to all of our kids too!

Babies are due to arrive beginning late February and continuing through late March. All kids will be offered to our specific goat contact list first, and be sold in a first come, first serve manner. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any questions or to get on our contact list now. As babies arrive, I will post pictures, details, and availability.

As always, I operate with full transparency, prices are based on the specific potential from the Dam/Sire pairing, and are posted now, in advance of kidding. No changes happen after kidding; I do not adjust for coat color or eye color. Wether pricing is going up for the first time in 12 years, unfortunately feed costs have pushed me to the decision to raise pricing on our castrated boys. They are still the best bet for pets, bringing personality plus to pasture for you.

All kids go home registered with the MSFGA, vaccinated, disbudded, castrated (if applicable), microchipped, and health checked.

MCH KE Paradys Denali
x
BIS MCH Full Circle Santa Baby

You can’t get more champion genetics into a breeding pair than this one! Denali couldn’t be stopped in the ring and pulled her Master Champion title with ease. Phineas has been retired from the ring for several years, earning his Master Champion title quickly as a young buck and cementing it with a Best in Show title as well. There is no doubt that these kids will have the potential to be extreme coated - both parents regularly need a trim so they can walk without stepping on their own coats! The amazing health, conformation, and longevity of these lines are second to none.

Racing for Home Persephone

BIS MCH Full Circle Santa Baby

Oh my, the potential with this pairing! Persephone is small in stature, has incredible confirmation, and all the coat you need to be a champion. She holds four Reserve Grand Champion titles coming in second place behind her dam, Misty Morning, each time. She’s going to get to the front of the line soon! Phineas goes without saying. Taking 2 Grand Champion titles and a Best in Show all at the same show proves that he is peak - beating out seasoned Master Champions in his first time in the Best in Show ring. These kids are on my watch list for possible retains, the genetics are that good.

Sol-Orr’s Wee Wren

BIS MCH Bear Creek Phineas

Another one to watch. Wren is a very petite doe with an amazing headress. She has full cheek muffs, a beard that goes forever, and correct conformation. Pairing her with Phineas who crushed it in the ring to earn his Master Champion title and Best in Show, the kids from this pairing will have it all going on. Smaller in stature, coat for miles, and minimal undercoat. Not to mention there could be some super flashy color combos highlighting the black and white patterning in unique and fun ways. I am personally eyeballing this pairing for a keeper buck, and I don’t keep bucks without serious consideration for genetics and confirmation. These kids have the potential for blue eyes.

Racing for Home Jacey

BIS MCH Bear Creek Phineas

Jacey is an amazing doe that was slow to mature to full glory, but now that she has, she’s stunning. Only lacking in headdress, she kids naturally with multiples, and throws tons of goodness into her kids, including her super laid-back personality. Her daughters of several generations have graced my herd and brought Grand Champion titles to the line. Paired with Best in Show, Master Champion Phineas, these kids will be incredible. These kids have the potential to have blue eyes.

Racing For Home Sock Monkey
x
BIS MCH Bear Creek Phineas

Looking for a show goat? This is a breeding for you, but only if you can convince me to let the kids go. Sock Monkey hasn’t rocked the show ring yet, but she’s up and coming. Speaking with a judge in Oct 2025, Sock was evaluated to be as close to conformationally correct as possible, but the lack of coat on her neck is holding her back. She’s young, that coat may come, but pairing her with Phineas should improve that in her kids. Sock has no cashmere undercoat and comes from a line that continues that trait generation to generation. Phineas earned his Master Champion title early on, crushing it in the ring and taking home a Best in Show as well. These kids should have hair for miles and have the potential for blue eyes.

Racing For Home Misty Morning
x
BIS MCH Bear Creek Phineas

Looking for a show goat? This is a breeding for you! Misty is a show stopper in the ring, holding two Grand Champion titles and several additional Reserve Grand Champion titles as well. She has a presence - that bold, confidence that draws the judge’s eye, and then she has the coat and conformation to back it up. Phineas earned his Master Champion title early on, crushing it in the ring and taking home a Best in Show as well. Between these two personality plus type goats, I expect the kids to be curious, outgoing, and hilariously fun. There is a potential for blue eyes, and an expectation of amazing conformation.

Terms of Sale

Reservations are taken on planned breedings that appear on our for sale page in the order in which they are received. Once the kids have arrived you will be notified if the kid you requested is or is not available. At that time, we will email or mail photos and/or arrange a visit to the farm to view the kid. Once you have seen the kid and confirmed your intent to purchase we require a non-refundable deposit of $100.00 to hold the kid until pick up time. All goats must be paid for in full before they leave Racing for Home Farm.

We reserve the right to retain any and all kids from any breeding.

Kids are registered with MSFGA (Miniature Silky Fainting Goat Association) at the time of purchase. All kids are assigned tattoo letters and tattooed on demand, microchipped, disbudded, castrated (if wethers), and have received their first vaccinations. All of our kids are inspected by a veterinarian and we guarantee that all goats are healthy and free from any visible defects at the time they leave the farm. Should health problems or physical defects become apparent at a later date, we cannot allow the goat to be returned to our farm for bio-security reasons. However, if a veterinarian has determined that a problem existed at birth, or was caused by mismanagement at our farm, we will make every effort to provide satisfaction to the buyer.

We cannot accept responsibility for a goat that does not meet your expectations at maturity. There are no guarantees of potential. Each of us accepts that risk with every goat, or other animal, we purchase.

While we prefer that goats are picked up at the farm, we will ship out of Flemington, New Jersey. The buyer is responsible for all associated shipping costs including crate, veterinary tests/certificates, air fare, fuel, etc. We will not ship a kid less than 10 weeks old and will not ship when weather presents threats due to time of year, temperature or other conditions that might be hazardous to the kid's health.

With purchases of several goats, we may be able to deliver (within a certain number of miles) or help arrange transportation. Call us to discuss.
