Keith
Buck – Myotonic
Meet Keith
Wild Haven Keith is a myotonic (fainting goat) buck born in January 2022 from Cowboy and Lily. Keith is a shy and reserved little rocker. He faints readily and frequently drags his hind legs when startled and will fall completely. With a strong myotonia, he is less playful than some bucks but will joust with bucks his own size. He’s a long hair miniature with striking bangs and beard.

FAQ
Learn a little more about Keith
Is Keith registered?
No. Since Keith’s dam (Lily) is not registered, he could be registered as a found/heritage goat with the IFGA. Wild Haven will provide you with all of the history of both Lily and Cowboy so that you can register Keith if you want to in the future. We are happy to help you through that process.
Is Keith intact?
Intact, for goats, means that the buck is not wethered (castrated) and is able to reproduce. Yes, Keith is intact.
Keith is proven, meaning that he has produced a kid (Petunia with Jubilee).
Due to his age, we do not recommend wethering.
Is Keith available for adoption?
Yes, Keith is available for adoption to the right homestead.
How big will Keith get?
Lily and Cowboy (dam and sire) are both near miniature in size. Cowboy was just over the limit and Lily is about 20 inches. Keith will not be getting any larger than that and will likely be in the miniature or companion category.
