Herd Does
Our Myotonic herd does are a combination of Tennessee and Texas/ Tennessee bloodlines. From the black & white Tennessee lines to the black & white, deep brown, red, white, and fawn of the Texas / Tennessee bloodlines; there is a beautiful show of color & markings. Many are bi- or tri-colored. Four young Tennessee-line doelings from Woody Creek Farm were added in early 2023.
Doe pedigrees include a number of championship bloodlines - both Permanent Grand Champions and National Champions. J-I bred does are beginning to establish their own championship titles.
J-I Polaris, born in March 2018, won Reserve Jr. Champion Doe at the 2018 MGR Louisiana Laginappe Buckle Blast and Grand Champion Doe at the 2019 Texas Myotonic Showdown.

Herd Sires
Our Myotonic herd sires come from a long-line of award-winning bucks. Zeus (aka Wolf River Dalton), our first sire, is the son of 2014 National Champion - ‘Wolf River Malachi’ and grandson of Permanent Grand Champion - ‘Hillside Acres Dinger’. Although leaving the ranch in 2020, his genetics remain through several bonnie herd does.
In 2017, two young bucks were introduced to provide bloodline diversity - 'Hillside Acres Bear', and 'Rising Sun Goat Farm Jaxson'. They are the foundation of J-I Ranch.
Bear is the son of Permanent Grand Champion - 'Bakken's Farm Kid Rock' and great-grandson of 2010 National Champion 'Woody Creek Farm WLS Hotrod'. Born in January 2017, Bear established himself by winning Reserve Grand Champion Buck, Jr Champion Buck, and twice Reserve Jr Champion Buck at the '2017 Iowa's Premier Myotonic Show'; Reserve Grand Champion Buck, Jr Champion Buck, and Reserve Jr Champion Buck at the '2017 MGR Midwest Myotonic Show'; Reserve Grand Champion Buck and Reserve Sr. Champion Buck at the '2018 Texas Myotonic Show Down', and three-times Reserve Grand Champion Buck, Sr. Champion Buck, and twice Reserve Sr. Champion Buck at the '2018 MGR Louisiana Lagniappe Buckle Blast'.

Why is show participation important as a breeder?
Although our primary focus is not as show exhibitors, it is important to us that our breeding stock upholds/excels at meeting breed standards and conformation. Therefore, 1-2 times per year, we select a handful of our breeding stock (does & bucks) and participate in MGR-sanctioned shows. This allows us to receive feedback from a number of qualified judges regarding the conformation and condition of our breeding stock. As breeders, we are serious about promoting good health and good conformation. Conformation is necessary for the long-term productivity and sustainability of the individual goat and ultimately, the herd.
In 2017, we participated two shows - the Iowa's Premier Myotonic Goat Show and the MGR Midwest Myotonic Goat Show. We took 11 goats to Iowa and 7 goats to Oklahoma.
In 2018, we also participated in two shows. At the Texas Myotonic Show Down, in addition to showing breeding stock, we introduced some of our 'new arrivals' in the pee-wee classes. This was a first showing of the offspring from sires 'Bear' & 'Jaxson'. We also participated in the MGR Louisiana Lapinappe in the Fall, taking mostly junior bucks & does.
In 2019, we participated in just one show - the Texas Myotonic Show Down. We took a mix of young Sr. does & bucks, older Jr. does, and a handful of 2018 Winter kids (total 15 goats).
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we did not participate in any shows in 2020 or 2021.
Finally, in 2022, we were able to participate again in the show ring! We participated in just one show this year - the Texas Myotonic Show Down. This really great annual show is hosted by Eve Williams, Janice Foster, and Kathy Chisum. For several years, it was the only sanctioned MGR show in Texas.
In 2023, we participated in two Texas shows - the Texas Myotonic Showdown in April and a new MGR show in Denton in September. The first show we took 17 goats including a wide range of youngsters and seniors. The second show we took 10 goats.
We will participate in two shows in 2024 - Texas Myotonic Showdown in April and North Texas Myotonic Blowout in Denton in September.
