Kidding Waiting List

 

If you would like to be added to the waiting list for unborn kids for a particular breeding, please contact us to place your request.  Please include if you desire a doeling, buckling, or wether.  A deposit is not required to be placed on the waiting list, and you are not obligated in any way to choose a kid by being placed on the waiting list, however, please let us know should your circumstance change. 

​

Once kids are born, notification is sent in order of requests received.  We allow 48 hours for you to accept or decline the kid then at which time it will be offered to the next in line.  If you do choose a kid at that time, a $50 non-refundable deposit will hold the kid of your choice.  We allow one week (7 days) for a deposit to arrive.  If a deposit is not received during this time frame, the kid will be put back up for sale. 

​

All kids reserved prior to weaning need to be picked up within a reasonable amount of time (8 - 10 weeks of age).  If a kid is not picked up within 12 weeks of age, the kid will remain the property of Elsberry Farms, and the deposit will not be refunded.

​

Bucklings born with herd sire potential may not be available as wethers unless not reserved by 7 weeks of age.  Kids will be disbudded, tattooed, wormed, vaccinated, and will have a fresh hoof trimming.  All bucklings born on the farm starting January 1, 2024, will be DNA typed and all wethers will be banded before leaving the farm.  All animals picked up at the farm will come with a small starter supply of grain, minerals, hay/alfalfa to help with their transition.  

​

Deposits may be received as check.  Payment in full is expected before any animal leaves the farm.  Cash only is accepted if paying balance owed at time of pickup.

​

Prices for those who have requested notification of available kids prior to being born are reflected in the Kidding Schedule.  Prices for kids/adult goats already born will depend on individual.  Multiple goat purchase discounts available ($25 off each additional goat after one is purchased).
