Walt
Buck – Myotonic/Fainter Miniature
Meet Walt
Wild Haven Walt is a miniature myotonic (fainting) buck born in February 2022 from Cowboy and Gloria. Walt is a sweet and cuddly goat who loves pets and being near people. 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 readily when in a playful mood. His coat is soft and full but is shorted than expected for silky fainter.
