Sales Policy
All testing, health certificate, crates, transport and associated costs are the responsibility of the buyer. Once an animal leaves our hands, we cannot be responsible for its health and well-being; this includes while in transit.
We reserve the right to retain any kid or adult at any time, for any reason. A non-refundable deposit of half the purchase price is required to hold available animals for up to 30 days. If prior arrangements have not been made by 30 days after deposit is received, the animal will be considered our property again, and we will keep or sell it as we see fit. If arrangements have been made ahead of time, boarding charges will begin to apply on a daily basis, starting on day 31. Cost for boarding will be assessed on an individual basis. Animals will not leave our farm without full payment. We accept paypal, cash, or checks. Checks must be cleared before an animal can leave our possession.
An animal is not considered spoken for and will not be held for a buyer, until a deposit is made. That means that if you request pictures or are waiting for an answer to a question we haven't gotten to yet, you might miss your chance to purchase said goat. We will try our best to provide as much information as possible, and send good pictures, but if another buyer sends a deposit first, we cannot hold the goat while gathering information.
All of our goats are on DHIA testing and we participate in Linear Appraisal annually. The scores and production records can be found on our website as we are able to update it, as well as ADGA Genetics website.
Kid Reservations/kidding schedule:
If you would like to reserve a kid from our kidding schedule, we keep a list of interested parties and contact in the order that the reservation was received. Reservations are free. We always get first choice of all kids born. Once kids are born, buyers will be informed if one is available as soon as possible and our 30 day policy will apply. In general, we bottle and lambar feed all kids and they are raised on a strict pasteurized rearing program. This is labor intense, but ensures our buyers not only that the kids will be friendly, but also provides an additional insurance against disease. Because of this, we really would like kids that are sold to move out as quickly as possible. We are also a small herd dairy who depends on milk sales for part of our income.
Health Guarantee:
We try our best to ensure kids and adults are healthy when they leave our farm. We test our whole herd annually for CAE (whole herd negative) and any new purchases are quarantined and tested for Johnes, CL, and CAE. If a buyer would like additional testing done, we can do so at their expense. Usually a day or two before a sale, we bring the animal(s) being purchased out of the pen and check them over, trim hooves and other maintenance as needed. If a goat is travelling out of state, a health certificate/CVI is REQUIRED and costs approximately $37. Some states require additional testing and that will mean additional fees.
Shipping:
We can airship out of Boise, ID, which is a 2 hour drive from us. We usually offer to deliver to the airport for free, as we use it as an excuse to visit family. 2 kids of similar size can ship in one crate to save on costs, if purchasing more than one. Ground transportation options are available regularly. And of course, you are always welcome to come to the farm and pick your kid up yourself, which gives you an opportunity to see their relatives in person, living conditions, herd feeding/management, etc.
Wethers are priced at $100 each or 2 for $150. Registered doe and buck prices vary based on quality and pedigree. We do not sell unregistered does, except as pets, where we have determined that they will not positively influence the breed. We do not sell unregistered bucks.
