We are CAE, CL, and Johne’s free. We test the main herd annually for CAE. We have never had a reason to test for CL or Johne’s. We can test for any diseases at the request of the buyer. We maintain a comprehensive worming program, and we vaccinate for CD&T. We do not copper bolus our animals or give any other vaccinations. Our does and bucks are fed high-quality alfalfa hay with a small supplementation of oat hay. Our does receive 2 pounds daily of a 16% Dairy Goat Mix grain. We offer free-choice salt, minerals, and bicarb. Does kid out in the main barn unless they are getting hassled by other animals. Then we put them in a kidding pen. We attend every birth and separate the kids soon after birth. Mothers are allowed to lick their kids for a few minutes, then are offered a bucket of warm water. Our kids are raised on heat-treated colostrum and pasteurized goat milk. We feed three times a day until they are 5 weeks old, and twice a day after that, tapering off and weaning at 14 weeks. The kids are fed our same “grain mixture” starting at 5 weeks of age until they are 9 months old, when they move in with the main barn. Shipping ## Domestic We do not accept deposits on kid orders. If you are interested in reserving a kid, please contact us and we will put you on the list for the doe you are interested in. Generally, orders will be prioritized in the order received, but we reserve the right to make any changes to the order of a reservation list. We also reserve the right to keep any kid we deem for our own herd, even if we have accepted an order previously. We prefer to ship kids at five to seven weeks, since at that age they are best able to adapt to a new home environment. The price of our kids includes ADGA registration fees, but does not include the health certificate (required for out-of-state shipment, usually $75), shipping crate ($80 to $110, depending on size), or shipping costs. We will compare airline prices to find the most reasonable shipping price to your destination. Cost varies, but ranges between $500 and $700 depending on crate size, weight, and where the kid is shipped. Obscure locations or small airports can cost significantly more, or may not be available. Because we usually do not ship kids that are under four weeks of age, and since the airlines require that kids must be able to stand up and turn around in their crate, we cannot ship kids in size #300 kennels. Most kids are shipped in a #400. Most airlines will NOT accept COD shipments anymore, so we pay the shipping cost on our end. Payment for the kid and travel expenses must be received before the kid leaves the property. If we are flying a kid, the buyer will pay an estimated amount for the flight, and we will reconcile the exact amount after the kid is shipped. Outside the U.S. ## International We only sell Internationally on a case by case basis. If you are International and you are interested in purchasing stock, please contact us.
