Sales Policy:


Our pricing reflects quality.  At Shakey Acres we select brood stock based on breed conformation and health.  All of our brood stock have been tested free of CAE, CL and Johnes.  We perform scheduled worming with Ivomec and maintain updates on CO/T and 3 Way vacinations.  Hooves are trimmed on a regular basis.  We use quality feed and provide mineral blocks.  Our stalls and pens are cleaned regularly.  This results in high quality, healthy and robust goats.  We are proud to go the extra mile and offer only the highest quality stock to our customers.

A $50.00 non-refundable deposit is required within seven (7) days after written/verbal conformation to hold your goat(s)/kid(s).

Registration:


We will register all of our fainting kids with the Myotonic Goat Registry (MGR) and pay associated fees.  We will register all of our Miniature Silky kids with the Miniature Silky Fainting Goat Association (MSFGA) and pay associated fees.  Transfer of the registration into the buyers' name is at the buyers' expense.  If the buyer wants kids dual or triple registered with MGR, IFGA or MSFGA that will be at the buyers expense.

Other Policies:


Disbudding/Dehorning:  We disbud all Mini Silky kids and will disbud MGR if the customer desires.  Disbuding should be done before two weeks of age

Bottle Babies:  We pride ourselves with providing healthy/quality offspring.   This is best done when the kid nurses from the doe.  Therefore we do not sell "bottle babies" unless the doe has no milk or rejects the kids.
