Available Pygmies
September 14th Update...
We have about 10 does bred for this fall and kiddings
will begin the end of September and continue until mid November.
We will be retaining several does and usually do keep a buck or two,
but there are bound to be some sale babies if the girls are
good to us and give us more than we can keep.
Once kids start to reach weaning age at approximately 8-10
weeks I will start making some choices and post any available kids here.
Thanks!
Price ranges depend upon the gender and quality of the goat and can vary, but since I have had several requests lately about unborn babies here are some guidelines below to give you an idea on price range.
Quality does and intact breeding bucks range from $300 and up, quality meaning that there are no mismarkings, undesirable traits like teat spurs and these animals should be at least competitive in the show ring. Of course management of the goat is essential to be a show winner so can not be guaranteed.
Quality wethers for showing are normally $150 and are banded no sooner than 8 weeks to give the urinary tract time to develop. (Mismarkings on wethers is allowed for showing since the main purpose when showing wethers is judging showmanship.)
Pet does will be priced according to the individual doe
and the reason she is being sold as a pet.
All males born that are not considered herd sire quality will be wethered.
All our goats are NPGA registered, disbudded, and dam-raised if at all possible for the best chance of a fully developed immune system and correct muscle development. No babies will leave the farm until they have had all their vaccinations, wormings and are eating grain and hay well - fully weaned.
This is approximately 8-12 weeks of age.
Goats are herd animals and MUST be paired with a companion.
Also young does are capable of breeding long before they should, for this reason we do not sell young babies in 'breeding pairs'.
DEPOSITS OF HALF THE PURCHASE PRICE WILL HOLD YOUR BABY UNTIL ARRANGEMENTS CAN BE MADE FOR DELIVERY TO A SHOW WE ARE ATTENDING OR FOR PICK UP AT OUR FARM. (AT THIS TIME WE PREFER NOT TO SHIP OUR GOATS - NOT ONLY IS IT EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE AND TIME CONSUMING, IT IS VERY HARD ON THE GOATS, ESPECIALLY ON BABIES)
