Sales Agreement
Kid Reservation and Sales Policy
1. We will sell no fewer than 2 goats per customer. I do this to insure the purchased animals have a companion they can rely on when going to a new home. Goats are a very social animals but may at first be rejected when entering a new herd. They need a companion from their own herd. Goats can be mean to other goats, so no exceptions to this rule.
2. All goats leaving my farm will have been disbudded and vaccinated. Owners and their children are often in close contact with the goats head, so I will not be selling any horned goats. A golden rule is to give goats C D & T shots. If you don't want to give this shot to your goats, please don't own goats.
3. We will sell only healthy goats from my farm. This does not mean when the goats leave my farm, the goats will remain healthy. Leaving their farm will be a very stressful time in their lives. We will not be held responsible for their health the minute they leave my farm. It is the new owners responsibility to now keep the goats healthy.
- If your vet finds that the animal has some type of genetic defect, we will replace or refund your purchase cost. Vet must provide certificate stating that the animal has a genetic defect in order to receive refund.
- For any animal that is replaced, delivery or shipping fees will be applied and covered at buyer's expense.
- If for some reason you are unable to keep the pet, due to my herd being closed and biosecurity, We will not take back the goat.
- A non-refundable deposit of $200 is required to hold the kid/adult of your choice for 10 days so that you may arrange transportation/shipping.
- Boarding charges will apply after 20 days at a rate of $1.00 per day.
- Newborn kids should be picked up by the time they are 4 weeks of age.
- All animals must be Paid In Full before leaving the farm. Outstanding balances will result in your animal being held until all debts are paid, including any boarding charges incurred. If you choose to pay by personal check, please allow 12 business days for your check to clear.
