Goat Sale Policies

Goat(s) for sale will be listed our Available page, first come first served if you are interested in a particular goat.  We maintaining a waitlist for spring 2025 kids.

Non Refundable Deposit = $100 deposit must be received within one week of decision to purchase in order to hold any goat until agreed upon pick-up date. If buyer cannot pick-up on the agreed upon (scheduled) date, then $10 per day is charged, up to 10 days. If buyer cannot pick up 10 days after the scheduled pick-up, or buyer cancels the sale, then deposit is forfeited and the goat(s) may be sold to another party. 

Deposit will be returned in full within 7 days only if the goat becomes sick, or passes away prior to pick-up, or if Gitchi-Gami goats decides to cancel the sale. Gitchi-Gami Goats retains the right to refuse a sale of any goat for any reason.

Remaining purchase price must be paid in full (Cash or Electronic) upon pick-up.  Goat(s) will not be loaded until payment is received. 

We accept Cash, Check (For Deposit only), Venmo or Zelle.

Goats MUST be purchased in pairs, no single sales unless you already have goats (and can prove it!).

Most goat kids may be picked up at weaning time, between 8-12 weeks of age. We expect all purchased goat kids to go to their new homes by 14 weeks of age.

Buyer must pick up at the farm here in Duluth Minnesota. Please leave your dog and barn clothing/shoes at home.  Buyer may arrange for shipping transport, however goat(s) must be paid in full prior to shipper's arrival. 

We do not meet or deliver. 

Buyer must have safe, secure transportation equipment for the goats to travel in. This typically involves a dog crate OR containment device that is secured inside a vehicle. NO LOOSE GOATS IN VEHICLE! This is for the safety of EVERYONE. 

Goat kids (20-40 lbs) can usually fit in a medium/large sized dog crate. Goat(s) will not leave property unless safely secured.  

Registration paperwork will be sent with eligible kids for the Buyer to submit unless registration has already been received, then transfer paperwork will be provided. Breeding quality goats will be registered with the Myotonic Goat Registry (MGR) prior to sale.  Pet-quality goats will not be registered.  Quality wethers can be provided MGR paperwork to be registered by the buyer.

The entire herd is tested annually for CL, CAE & Johnes. We are fortunate to work with a local veterinarian for our goat health care. Results are available upon request. 

All goats will be as up to date as possible on CD-T vaccinations, deworming, external parasite control & hoof trimming prior to leaving the farm.  Goat kids will be disbudded or polled. Disbudding can fail and on occasion there are horned kids available. Non-breeding quality bucklings will be wethered at or after 8 weeks of age to allow for better urethral development.

We will ensure every goat is healthy prior to leaving the farm, however once they have left the property, we are no longer responsible for their health or care. Buyer must ensure that they have adequate shelter, space and nutrition (hay, grain, mineral) to care for their goats.  We are happy to share our goat husbandry methods or recommend helpful resources. 

Each goat will leave with a medical record (this is NOT a certificate) and a scrapie identification tag. 

Buyer is responsible for any health certificates or additional testing necessary for transporting to their location.
