KIDS FOR SALE
Goat babies are called kids. Little boys are bucklings, little girls are doelings.
LOVE IS IN THE AIR AT SWEET RIVER RANCH!
Breeding plans are complete and we are now taking deposits for Spring 2010 kids. Black Jack will be spending the month of November with Bebe, Diana, and Ebony; kids will be born in April 2010. Cognac will be spending the month of December with Carmella, Ivory, and Prima; kids will be born in May 2010.
Our contact list for choosing kids will be in the order of deposits received. Deposits are applied toward the cost of a kid and is fully refundable if there are no kids born that interest you by the end of our kidding season. Deposits are $100 per kid.
Please e-mail goatmom@californiapygoras.com
if you are interested in our Spring 2010 kids.
All our kids will be disbudded, given their baby shots, microchipped, and any bucklings will be wethered. Fees and paperwork for pre-registration will be submitted to the Pygora Breeders Association by us when the kid is paid in full and ready to go to her new home. Your kid is reserved with a $100 deposit and must be paid in full before pickup or delivery.
If you're new to goats, there is a lot of information about the different breeds, their care, and what they can provide, on the internet, in books, on video. If you are considering the possibility of owning goats, the best advice is do your homework! Read, read, read, then go visit a ranch or two, or three. Talk to people who own goats. Be honest and evaluate your needs and desire to own these animals with your ability to be a good shepherd.
Prices for registered pygora goats depend on sex, color, fiber possibilities, conformation, and health. Any bucklings born will be wethered unless a buyer specifically requests and pays in full for a buck to remain intact, so typically we will have doelings and wethers for sale. Wethers are priced at $100 to $150. Doelings are priced at $300 to $450. An intact buckling would be priced at $400 to $450. Final prices depend entirely on the kids themselves. Remember to consider transport in your plans as these costs are the responsibility of the buyer; I can suggest options.
