All sales are final, and animals we sell are sold “as is” on the date of purchase. We are not responsible for them once they leave our care.
Sorry, international buyers! Domestic sales only.
Matings on our published Breeding List are tentative until confirmed and are subject to change without notice. Sometimes we change our minds–or the goats do! If does are bred before they are sold, they will be priced as bred does (+$100) once they are confirmed pregnant. Does will not be sold as bred after they are four months pregnant, because it is not advisable to move them after that time in their pregnancy.
We reserve the right to retain any kid we choose, for any reason, regardless of reservation, or to cancel reservations on kids we do not feel are up to our standards. If this happens, you will be offered your choice of available kids, rolling over your reservation to the following year, or a refund of your deposit. We cannot guarantee the same matings will be offered the following year.
DEPOSITS & RESERVATIONS:
We offer 2 doe and 1 buck kid reservations on most does. Feel free to check with us after kids are born for further availability, since more kids may be offered for sale after we’ve evaluated them. Only buck kids who meet our standards for vitality, conformation, and breed type will be offered for sale.
We require a $100 deposit to reserve animals offered for sale. If you reserve a kid, we will notify you when it is born. We do not reserve kids by color (blue roan, moon spots, etc.), nor will we refund a deposit if a sale is cancelled simply because the kid is not the color you want. Payment in full for reserved kids or animals on our Sale List must be made within 30 days of birth or sale. We charge $250 to raise a kid to weaning at 3 months of age. Otherwise, we charge $2 per day board for sold animals after 30 days, until they are picked up.
We allow 30 days (1 month) for you to complete your purchase. If for some reason, your animal is not paid in full within that time frame, you must contact us to make other arrangements or forfeit your purchase. IT IS NOT OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO NAG YOU. If you have a situation, we will work with you, but you must communicate with us.
If your check is returned for insufficient funds, your purchase will be cancelled.
All animals must be paid in full, including any outstanding board, and/or transport costs, before leaving our premises.
We expect animals to be picked up in a timely manner. We reserve the right to charge board at $2/day if they are not.
If an unforeseen situation arises after an animal is sold, for example a doe kid turns out to be a hermaphrodite 6-months after leaving here, we expect the buyer to present a certified veterinary exam (CVI) attesting to that claim for refund or replacement.
DISCOUNTS:
- A 10% discount on multiple purchases of 2 or more animals.
- A 10% 4-H/FFA discount with documentation that you are participating in those programs.
- We give preference to ADGA members and herds participating in DHIA.
DNA:
All herd sires used in our breeding program, as well as some of our does, have been DNA-typed and parentage-verified. Buck kids sold for breeding purposes will be DNA-typed and Parentage Verified at our expense. In addition, all foundation animals in our herd have been DNA tested to be free of the G6S mutation, including those already deemed normal by parentage. Some of our animals have also been typed for Alpha S1 Casein. The variants currently in our herd are A/A, A/B, A/N, and B/N. We have not tested for Scrapie resistance.
REGISTRATION & TRANSFERS:
We sell registered purebred Nubians. This means your animal is already registered when you pick it up. If you reserve a kid, you will have the option of naming it before it is registered. We do not sell animals as “can be registered” or without papers at a discount, other than newborn unregistered buck kids destined to be wethers.
TRANSFERS:
If your kid is paid in full before registration, we will also transfer it to you when we register it online, since we can easily do it at that time. Unfortunately, ADGA cannot currently transfer already-registered animals online, so their registration papers must be sent in to complete the transfer. Since we currently have no way of knowing how long that process will take, we will send a copy of their papers with you for transport and mail in the papers to ADGA. This process normally takes a couple weeks to complete. It may also take longer for buyers who are non-members of ADGA.
BUCKLINGS:
We do sell bucklings from first fresheners, but only if the doe AND kid meet our standards. The doe must have a very good udder and corresponding production, plus her buckling must be strong, correct, and a good example of the Nubian breed.
We sell unregistered newborn buck kids for $50 each, up to 1 month of age. These are bucklings destined to be meat wethers, pets, companion animals, pack animals, grazers, etc.. They may or may not be disbudded since we do that at 2 weeks of age. They will not be banded, until they are 2 months or older. Unregistered bucks older than 1 month will be sold by live weight at current auction prices.
We do not sell does with a breeding back to one of our bucks, though we do now offer driveway buck service. This is because we have neither the facilities for boarding outside animals, nor do we have the resources to milk and/or care for them. Driveway buck service involves breeding does in standing heat when they arrive that are then taken back home. If this interests you, please contact us at imnahanubians@outlook.com so we can coordinate with you. Prices range from $15-$50 per doe for buck service with one free return service per doe, with youth discounts offered for does owned by young persons under 18 years of age. We recommend contacting your veterinarian to obtain Lutalyze or CIDR’s to guarantee your does are ready when they arrive. We do hope, at some future time, to offer semen for sale from our bucks; but at present, we aren’t equipped for that.
WE DO NOT RAISE HORNED GOATS. We disbud ALL KIDS at +/- 2 weeks of age, so if having horned goats is important to you, you must pick them up before disbudding.
TRANSPORT:
We recognize the difficulties buyers encounter in getting their animals to their new homes. For that reason, we can usually meet you or your transporter in La Grande, OR with your animal. We are not transporters–we have our own animals to care for. If you choose to use a professional animal transporter, we recommend Wanderlust Farm Transport and Culver Family Transport. Both companies are reliable animal transporters who are familiar with dairy goats. If you can, we encourage you to pick up your animals at the farm, because you can then see their relatives in person.
Buyers are responsible for ALL COSTS OF TRANSPORT, including any unforeseen cost overruns. This will normally include
- A Certificate of Veterinary Inspection (CVI). Required for any out-of-state sales.
- Any blood/lab tests required by the import state. These may include tests for Brucellosis, Tuberculosis, Q-Fever, Pigeon Fever, a Small Ruminant Biosecurity Profile (CAE/CL/Johnes’), etc., or any combination (or none) of these.
- A crate. We will provide one at cost, if needed.
- Rental vehicle, if needed.
- Fuel/mileage costs, if applicable.
PRICING:
Our prices begin at $400 for “family milkers” and newborn kids from first fresheners up to $1500 for proven mature animals who have earned recognition or multiple awards, such as an AR Star or Plus (*M or +B), Superior Genetics rating (SG), ELITE designation, Very Good or Excellent Linear Appraisals, INBA Merit Awards, Champion show wins, etc. Buck kid prices start at $500 and include DNA typing and parentage identification at our expense. We also include the price of registration and transfer in the sales price.
“Family milkers” are registered purebred does that are good producers but not suited for show who can still produce kids worthy of registration when bred to a good buck. As always, pricing depends on the individual’s pedigree, performance, and achievements.
