Sales Policy

Deposits

If you would like to reserve an unborn kid from a planned breeding, please send a $100 deposit for each breeding pair kid you wish to reserve.  If your selected kid is not available, you are welcome to transfer the deposit to another animal, save it for the following year, or receive a full refund of your deposit.

A $100 deposit is required to hold a weaned kid or mature goat for 15 days while you arrange transportation. This deposit is non-refundable but is transferable to another animal for a period of one year.  We may be able to hold your reserved goat longer than 15 days (if arrangements are made in advance) for a fee of $3 per day.

You are welcome to pay your deposit with PayPal using your credit card or personal bank account. I am a verified member of PayPal. Please send your payment to [email protected]. I ask for an additional 3% percent if you use PayPal to help cover the fees PayPal charges me. If you can send the money as a “gift”, and no fees are charged, the added 3% is not necessary.  If you prefer, please send your deposit to:

Debbie Steiner, 1122 Saw Mill Rd., Conover, NC  28613

Thanks!  I will email you when I receive your payment.

Shipping & Travel

As is the norm in the animal industry, all expenses, shipping, travel crate, health check-up, health certificate, and any further testing (required by you or the state you live in) are your financial responsibility.  I can provide feed if you use a transport service.

Please call airlines for up-to-date costs and requirements.

Guarantees

We guarantee the fertility of our breeding animals and will replace an infertile doe or buck. A statement from a veterinarian will be required to establish that the infertility is of genetic origin and not due to lack of proper care. Our goats are healthy when they leave our farm. However, because we cannot control the stress of shipping and the animal’s management and environment after it leaves our care, we cannot offer further health guarantees. Here is what we do NOT guarantee, although we wish we could!  No one can accurately predict the mammary system of a doe kid so unfortunately, it cannot be guaranteed. We are striving to produce does with excellent mammary systems and will give you our best educated guess on a doe kid’s potential. Furthermore, every breeder can also only give an educated guess on how a young animal will develop as it matures. Therefore, we are unable to offer a height guarantee. 

Animal Health

We test our herd annually for CAE, CL and Johnes.  Our herd has tested all negative since we started testing in 2017.  We also deworm, vaccinate and use medicated feed on a regular basis.  We disbud all of our kids and if you want them registered, we send along a completed application for you to finalize and submit to ADGA, TMGR or MDGA and NPGA.

Kid Reservations

If you would like to reserve an unborn kid from one of the pair-ups on the breeding schedule, please send a $100 deposit for each kid you wish to reserve. Please select second choices since we can’t predict the number or gender of kids born.  If your 1st and 2nd kid choices are not available, you are welcome to transfer the deposit to another animal, save the deposit for a future breeding, or receive a full refund of your deposit. Should you decide not to get a goat, your deposit is NOT refundable. If you would like to reserve wether kids, please let us know that.

Thank You

Thank you for taking the time to consider our goats as a potential new addition to your herd. If you decide to purchase any of our animals, we will work with you to ensure that there is a smooth transition for your new goat(s) when you purchase them. We love to stay in touch with our customers (and potential customers too!) and look forward to getting to know you. Our customers are very important to us and we rely on word of mouth for much of our advertising. We are totally hooked on these wonderful little dairy goats and plan to be in the business for a long time.
