At Kutz Creek Farms, we strive for complete satisfaction with every goat sale or kid reservation. Our goal is to produce healthy high-quality goats for pets, breeding, or show.
That being said, the terms and conditions of sales, and the kid pre-order reservation info below are to protect the seller (Kutz Creek Farms (KCF)) and the buyer (you). This is a standard term of sales agreement for a goat purchase and a big thanks to Left Foot Farm and other goat breeders for their help in creating this info page. It is so important we protect our goats as the investment in getting them to the point of sell is more than milk and feed ... its love and tons of it. It is our responsibility as breeders to make sure they go to good homes and are not end up forgotten like many livestock.
Please review this entire page of terms, conditions and policies completely, as they are your responsibility upon completion and receipt of your electronic signature.
Please review the material below in its entirety before signing and before contacting the farm for purchase pickup. Please use the e-mail form below for any questions that you may have before or after placing an order.
Deposit for future kids will be 1/3 of Selling Price with the remaining balance due within two weeks of weaning. Deposits for an animal already on the ground will be half of the price of the goat to reserve the animal of your choice. An e-mailed receipt of that deposit will not only secure the reservation of the animal chosen, but also acts as implied consent on your behalf to comply with these terms. If your deposit is to be mailed, please inform us of when it is sent.
Please note: to have a buck wethered (castrated) you must pay in full first; wethering a buck will not be done if only a deposit has been made. KCF also has the rights to refuse any request of castration of any buckling. No buckling will be wethered prior to four months of age.
Payment must be in “guaranteed funds”: cash, money order, Venmo, Paypal, Cash App or Zelle. If you use a personal check, the animal must stay at our farm until the check clears. An animal is not “reserved” until 1/3 the amount due is paid for and is not “bought” until paid in full.
If you have not paid in full before picking up the animal, then the remainder of the money that is owed is due at time of pick up, cash or cash app only please! PLEASE NOTE: If the balance is not received by the date we have set for pickup, the animals will be offered to the next interested party and deposit will be forfeited. If animals are not picked up the weekend after the date they are old enough to leave, a boarding fee will be applied after that time. Any and all outstanding balances must be satisfied prior to the animal leaving the farm. If the goat is not picked up by the agreed time on the agreed upon date, the animal will be relisted for sale without refund. Please be advised that there will be no refunds on canceled orders.
KCF reserves the right to retain any animal from any pairing at any time for any reason. If a kid from a pairing becomes unavailable in this fashion, all money will be refunded to the buyer OR buyer may reserve/buy another goat with said funds. KCF reserves the right to refuse sale to anyone for any reason.
Goats are social animals and we have the right to refuse any goat purchase based on the condition of the home or knowledge of the new owner. No goat will be sold to a solo goat farm. Goats are meant to be with other goats, so if you are a new goat owner, we are happy to help mentor you, but you will also need to purchase an additional goat or board the goat at our farm until you have companionship available.
All animals will be healthy upon leaving our farm to the best of our knowledge. We cannot be responsible for an animal once it leaves our farm. It is in the buyers’ best interest to have their pet checked by a vet prior to leaving.
If the animal you have purchased needs a new home, please contact Kutz Creek Farms, and we will attempt to help you find your animal a new home.
Size, production, future heath, scurs, show quality and looks cannot and will not be guaranteed. We do our best to match good genetics at KCF, but we are dealing with nature and sometimes the outcome does not match our intentions.
Each goat that is sold as “registered” will be sold with registration or registration application papers. The buyer will need to pay fees for the registration transfer or application. Goats that are already registered cannot have their names changed.
For the health and safety of our goats, Kutz Creek Farms does not offer breeding or stud services. We will sale does with service memos, and you can choose the buck once full payment for the doe has been received. Should the doe not be in heat or ready to breed, a boarding fee will be applied until she is ready to be paired. Once pregnancy is confirmed, she can be transported to her new home with a service memo.
Kutz Creek Farms does not recommend the shipping of animals. All must be a coordinated farm pick up. Goats are social animals and highly stressed transfers can lead to depression and illness. If an animal is to be shipped, buyer is responsible for all shipping cost and arrangements.
We will do our best to work with you to get the goat to your farm in the least stressful way. We are open to meeting half way for a travel fee or you can come to the farm and get the goat. We are happy to introduce you to the parents of any kids should we still have them onsite.
