We care a lot about where our goats end up, because they are not just livestock here, they are part of our programs and our daily work. Our herd is raised for dairy, education, and companionship, and our sales policy reflects that.

1) Tell us your goals, we will help you pick a match

When you reach out, tell us what you are trying to build, even if you are brand new.
Examples:
Want to increase udder height or improve teat placement?
Looking for stronger medial suspensory ligaments and long-term udder support?
Need better feet and legs, or more dairyness?
Want a steady, friendly temperament for a family milk goat or 4-H project?

We will help match you with the right kid or adult, and in many cases we can provide a type-style report or notes pulled from the same kind of evaluation language used in ADGA resources (including the ADGA Genetics type information we have been working with). This is not a guarantee of show wins or milk records, it is a tool to help you make an informed decision.

2) Our goats are not sold for meat

We do not sell goats to meat homes. If you are looking for meat stock, we are not the right fit.

3) Goats must have age-appropriate goat companionship

Goats are herd animals and need goat companionship. We do not sell to homes that do not already have an age-appropriate companion for the goat you intend to buy, unless you are purchasing two (or more) goats together.

4) We match goats to homes, not to trends

We do not accept reservations based on cosmetic traits such as eye color, moonspots, or polled status. Those traits do not predict health, structure, udder quality, temperament, or long-term productivity, and we do not encourage choosing goats solely for looks.

5) Dam-raised kids and bottle baby policy

Unless you have solid bottle-feeding experience and the setup to do it safely, we do not sell bottle babies. Our kids are handled regularly and can be friendly without being pulled early from their dams. We believe dam-raised kids are healthier and more resilient. 
Kids are dam-raised and weaned at approximately 16 weeks.
If we ever offer a bottle baby, it will be limited, and buyers must demonstrate experience and appropriate facilities.

6) Disbudding policy

We disbud our kids. If you are purchasing a non-registered pet goat and do not want it disbudded, we can discuss it on a case-by-case basis, but we require a 70% nonrefundable deposit to hold that kid because horned goats are significantly more difficult to place.

7) Health practices and basic management

We raise our herd with a “natural when possible, responsible always” approach.
Kids receive CDT vaccination.
Bucks not meeting our breeding standards are wethered.
Kids are on Calf Pro coccidia prevention.
We maintain herd records and will share the individual goat’s health history we have on file at pickup.

8) Deposits, holds, and payment terms

Deposits hold your place and your goat, and they are nonrefundable.

• Unregistered goats: $50 deposit once the kid is born.

• Registered goats: $100 deposit once the kid is born.

• Exception (horned by request for non-registered pet goats): 70% deposit required to hold, due at reservation.

The remaining balance is due before pickup, or at pickup in an agreed-upon form of payment.

If a buyer backs out, the deposit is forfeited and the goat will be relisted.

9) Registered goat requirements

• All registered goats are tattooed before leaving the farm.

• For registered does, priority will be given to performance homes (LA, DHIR, Show).

10) We reserve the right to retain a breeding

We reserve the right to retain a breeding (for example, to keep a specific pairing available for our program goals). If this applies to a specific animal or season offering, we will state it clearly before any deposit is accepted.

11) Discounts and buyer incentives

We want goats to move with less stress and into homes set up for success.

• Sibling discount: $25 off each goat when purchasing multiples (when available).

• Livestock vet relationship discount: $25 off when you already have an established relationship with a livestock veterinarian.

• 4-H and FFA: We will work with you. Tell us your goals and deadlines.

12) Class credit

If you have taken our “We’re Getting Goats” class, 50% of the cost of the class can be applied toward a goat purchase.

13) We reserve the right to refuse a sale

All placements are vetted. We may ask questions about fencing, shelter, herd mates, feeding plan, predator protection, and your goat experience. We reserve the right to refuse a sale if we feel a placement is not a good fit.

14) First right of buy-back

If you ever need to rehome a goat purchased from us, you must contact us first. We require the first option to buy back, or to assist with an appropriate rehome.

15) Pickup expectations

Goats must be picked up on the agreed pickup window. If you need to delay pickup, communicate with us as early as possible. Extended holds may require a boarding fee, depending on timing and space.
