Goat Sales

Prices and Policies

We offer fine Nubian Kids and Goats for sale from time to time.  All of our Nubians are purebred and can be sold registered.

Goat Sales Prices

Registered Does and Bucks $350 and up

 Doe Kids and Buck Kids with Registration Application $300 and up

(10% Discount on purchases of 5 or more kids from this category)

Unregistered Bucks $150 and up

 Wethers $75 and up

Goat Sales Policies

Prices for reserved kids are for kids picked up by 3 weeks of age. After 3 weeks of age reserved kids will incur an additional $5.00 per day boarding charge.  This is due to the cost of feeding the kids our pure fresh goat milk (instead of us being able to make the milk into cheese).

We require a $50 deposit per kid ordered with the balance due within 10 days after notification of birth. If payment is not received within that time the buyer will forfeit their deposit money.

Deposits are refunded if your choice of kid is not born or if the kid is not up to our standards of quality. Deposits will not be refunded on cancelled orders. We will honor all reservations for kids except under exceptional circumstances i.e. loss of sire or dam. In other words we will not keep a reserved kid just because we like the kid.

All goats are guaranteed free of CAE, CL, Brucellosis, TB, Mycoplasma, and are G6S Normal.  All of our kids are sold disbudded.  Any kids purchased as wethers will be castrated (banded) before leaving the property.

We prefer all kids and goats to be picked up at the ranch.  Overnight lodging and meals are available here at the ranch. Contact us for discount pricing.

If you are interested in buying a goat, please contact us for availability (or to be put on our waiting list) by  emailing Kathryn or calling (928) 536-7759.

Sale prices, terms and conditions subject to change prior to sale confirmation.
