The following are our sale and reservation policies.  Most of these are standard agreements commonly found in place with other goat breeders and often there is never an issue, but we prefer to be up-front to avoid future conflict.

We want you to be happy!  Still, there are no guarantees in nature.  It helps if you are very clear on your desires for a particular kidding.  We will do our best to accommodate you and provide you with a kid that meets your needs.

All animals will leave our farm in the best health we can provide, free of certain disqualifying traits, unless otherwise disclosed.

All animals born with horns will be disbudded shortly after birth.   Even with disbudding, scurs may still appear.

We reserve the right to retain any animal at any time.  We reserve the right to sexually alter (wether bucks or spay does), or euthanize (or sell for consumption) any animal at any time.   This may occur if we deem the animal to be of inadequate quality for breeding or intended purpose.  Certain disqualifying faults, such as less/more than 2 teats, less/more than 2 testicles on a buck, birth defects, etc. may lead to this decision (but we are not limited to these issues).  These animals can often live a fruitful life as a companion or pet and they may be offered for sale as an altered animal, with or without registration papers with the understanding that they cannot be bred.

Goats are herd animals and Pygmies are too small to safely co-habitat with larger animals like horses and cattle.  We may offer a discount on simultaneous purchases of multiple animals so that your goats are not lonely but we will not sell a single animal to a home that does not have any other goats, unless the animal is expressly sold for consumption. 

We do ask that you share both your successes and your disappointments with us so that we can adjust our breeding program accordingly. 

We prefer to conduct our transactions with cash and we are always happy to provide a written receipt.   Registration and ownership papers will be provided with the animal at the time of sale, if they are included with the sale.

We can also accept payments made by check.  However, ownership papers will not be provided until the payment clears. 

We can also accept payments via Revolution Money Exchange and/or PayPal.  If you wish to use either of these services, please contact us in advance and allow us to invoice you with the correct charges.   PayPal transactions will incur a non-refundable 5% surcharge to allow us to provide this service to you.

Deposits are as follows:  Reserving a kid from a particular breeding is $50.  To reserve goats that we offer for sale is $50. per goat, non – refundable.

We will also accept payments on our goats.  Please contact us regarding payments.

The animal will not leave our property and the ownership or registration papers will not be provided until the total amount, including the surcharge fees, has cleared.

We reserve the right to refuse a sale to or a reservation from anyone, at any time, for any reason.

We reserve the right to cancel your reservation if we are unable to reach you in a timely fashion or under certain other circumstances.  Please be sure to provide us with reliable contact information so that we can alert you to the birth of your reserved kid and discuss weaning and delivery dates.

Unless prior arrangements allow a later stay, goats must be picked up from the farm or shipped from the farm within 14 calendar days from weaning.  Goats that stay beyond this date will incur a $5/day boarding fee.  While we will continue to provide the best care available for your goat, we are not responsible for illness, injury, or death after purchase while boarded at our farm or en route to your destination.  You will be responsible for all liabilities, including but not limited to veterinary and related expenses incurred on your animal's behalf, regardless of outcome.  Goats not picked up or shipped out within 30 calendar days of weaning are considered abandoned, unless prior arrangements allow a later stay.  Abandoned goats will revert back to our ownership at our discretion. 

We may offer discounts for multiple purchases or discounts for buyers involved in certain projects.  Please tell us about your project and inquire directly before making a deposit or purchase.
