Sales and Pricing:
KIds: Doelings typically start in the $400-$450 range, and go up from there.  We are no longer offering buck kids except by pre-arranged, private treaty.   Kid prices are influenced by a number of factors, such as genetics of sire and dam, overall quality and performance of sire and dam and any previous offspring.  And of course, there's the quality of the kid itself.  In light of this unborn kid prices may not be set until after kidding, and we may not charge the same price for all kids in the same litter. However, in most cases a range or estimate is given on our reservation page, so buyers have an idea what the price is likely to be.  A definite price will of course always been given at the time waitlisted buyers are notified kids are available.

Single goat purchases only to homes that already have goats. A companion wether can be purchased with the doeling, pending availability.

Bucklings:  Bucklings will occasionally be available by private treaty, only out of select does.  If you are interested in reserving a buckling, we would love to chat with you about one! 

Adult animals: At times I will need to reduce the herd to make room for new breeding stock. Does, doe kids, and wethers can be found on the For Sale page.
Our adult bucks are usually not available for sale, as we prefer to wether them and find them permanent pet homes after they are done working in our herd. We do this as we see fit and without notice. We do make exceptions to this policy and will sometimes place a buck into the right home. If  you are interested in someday acquiring any buck currently standing in our herd, we encourage you get in touch with us right away.  

Wethers: We offer nearly all of our male kids as pet wethers.  Nigerian dwarf wethers are very popular as pets, and usually sell out quickly. We do occasionally have older pet wethers available, which also make FABULOUS pets.  We also sometimes have wethered adult bucks available for pets (they have no odor once wethered), which are wonderful if you don't want to keep a buck, but would like to know when your does are in heat! They also serve well as a companion for a breeding buck, if you only want to keep one buck.

Reservations & Waitlist
After experimenting with a variety of models, we now offer Reservation with deposit, as well as waitlist offerings.

Reservations:  We offer one doe kid reservation per doe, with a $100 deposit for reservations on pre-born kids.  The expectation is the buyer really wants a doe kid from that doe, hence the reservation. We do not do multiple Reservations for one buyer unless the buyer intends on purchasing multiple kids. However, we do take multiple no-charge waitlist requests, with no obligations. 
 
Wait-list:  There is no deposit or charge to be on the waitlist, and kids which are not retained or reserved by deposit are offered to those on the wait list for that doe before being advertised as available. You may be on the waitlist for more than one doe, so this is a good option for 2nd and 3rd choices. For  waiting-list, simply email me which breeding(s) you would like a kid from.

How it works after kids are born: After kids are born, I will notify you by email, Facebook Messenger, and/or by phone call or text message that your kid is available, along with the kid's price. We ask that you respond back within 48 hours with a yes, no, or any questions.   If I don't hear back after 48 hours, I'll assume you did not want the kid and offer it to the next person on the list,  but I'm really hoping folks will let me know one way or the other.

Once you agree to purchase a kid from the waitlist or reservation, you will be asked to get the deposit to me within 10 days (I will accept check by mail, but must be received within 10 days notifying me you will take the kid).  Deposit is 50% of the purchase price. Any prior deposit made, such as for a reserved kid, will be applied to this deposit amount.  For both Reservation and Wait-list purchases, the balance will be due at the time you pick up the kid, or BEFORE scheduled pick up by a third party, delivery, or ship date.

All breeding stock are sold registered with ADGA with their ADGA registration papers; I reserve the breeder's right to choose the name for all registered kids.

Deposits are refunded if the kid dies before pickup, I determine the kid is unfit for sale, or  if I otherwise cancel the sale.  I understand that sometimes life can be terribly unpredictable, and under certain circumstances which I deem acceptable, I may elect to refund a deposit at my discretion, if the buyer chooses not to follow through with the sale. However, backing out of a sale because you changed your mind, your spouse said no, or you bought a kid somewhere else, are NOT acceptable circumstances.

 Kids are to be picked up at weaning  (about 8 - 12 weeks of age), or 3-6 weeks of age for bottle-trained kids, or within the specified time agreed upon by both parties, at which time the balance of the purchase price is due and arrangements for pick-up or delivery are to have already been made.    Board of $5 per day, per goat, will be charged for animals not picked up within 30 days of original notice they are ready, unless mutual agreement in writing between seller and buyer is made to waive board charges. Board fees must be paid before animal is picked up or transported. Failure to pay board fees will result in cancellation of the sale and forfeiture of all monies paid.

 I reserve the right to cancel any sale or reservation at any time. 

We will only allow animals to leave our property if visibly healthy; meaning, normal temperature, vitals, and bowel movements, no colored discharge from eyes or nose.

Guarantees:  Kids sold as breeding stock are guaranteed free from of genetic defects causing infertility.  Should a kid sold as breeding stock be found infertile,  due to a clearly identifiable congenital defect,  we will replace the kid or doe with another kid of the same gender, as soon as one becomes available. We will extend this guarantee to include teat defects for animals who are sold as breeding stock, as sometimes a teat defect does not manifest until puberty. We MUST be notified of a suspected teat defected prior to the animals FIRST birthday. We MUST be notified there is a concern the animal may a congenital defect affecting fertility prior animal prior to the animals THIRD birthday. Failure to do so voids the above stated guarantee.

      Proof of exam and statement of findings from a licensed veterinarian, which must include on the statement ear tattoos were read by the veterinarian, documented and matched to ADGA registration papers, and that the defect is congenital and/or was present at birth, and is the cause of infertility. For a teat defect, the veterinarian must include statement ear tattoos read, documented, and matched ADGA registration papers, and a statement confirming presence of a teat defect.  A copy of the veterinarian findings report must be submitted to us within 30 days of the date of the veterinarian's findings. 
The above guarantee does NOT apply to animals designated sold as a pet on the sales agreement whether with or without papers, wethers, or does with an existing and disclosed teat defect at the time of purchase.

    We will work with the buyer in such cases to provide a comparable replacement; however,the final choice and selection of the replacement will reside with the breeder. The buyer will be responsible for any transportation costs and transportation related costs (such as health certificates) for the replacement kids.
 
Payment:  Cash, personal checks, and PayPal are all welcomed for deposits.  I strongly prefer PayPal and cash for final purchases.  I do not like to take personal checks for final purchases, as I cannot release animals until the check has cleared my bank.

Shipping and Transport: 
Delivery may be possible within 3 hours of the Vancouver, Washington area for a fee to cover fuel costs.  Air Shipping available via air out of Portland, Oregon. Costs vary depending on destination, airline, and time of year. One can expect air shipping costs (crate, health cert, airline, and tranportation fees) to be around  $400-$500.   Ground shipping available via pre-approved (Andorra Hills Transport or Blarney Heights Transport), or other mutually agreed-upon ground transport; buyers are responsible for any and all shipping and associated shipping costs (kennel, health certs, etc.).  As each situation is unique, please contact me to discuss details regarding delivery or shipping.

FIRST TIME GOAT-OWNERS-TO-BE:  Welcome!  With just a little preparation, goat ownership can be a rich, wonderful, rewarding experience.  But, like anything else, just jumping in without forethought can be frustrating, disappointing, and even heart-breaking. I am here to support you in getting started, so that your experience with these wonderful little goats is a positive and enriching one!
