From time to time we will post here to offer goats and other miscellaneous items available for sale. Contacting us by email is best as our phone doesn't always work when we're commuting or working outdoors or in the barn. If you call, be sure to leave a message and follow-up with an email!

Unless otherwise stated, all prices are based on a cash sale. We can make these items available in Anchorage or Wasilla or points in between.

Have you seen our kids??

Be sure to check out the kidding schedule to see kids available and to plan your reservations for future kids. If you are outside Southcentral Alaska, we can arrange for health certificates and testing and ship out of Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport (ANC). If you plan ahead to purchase when they are young and small enough, even at weaning at 12 weeks, two kids may be able to share a crate for the trip to you.

We are currently taking reservations on our 2010 kiddings and we do have a few junior does, does in milk, and bucks available.

Our goats can go in pairs or to other solid, experienced homes with other, similarly-sized, hornless goats. If you don't already have experience, don't be discouraged! we can help you build a network of mentors!

We practice strict bio-security. Our herd comes from clean-tested, high-quality stock with a long history of negative test results. Additionally, our vet recently tested and examined the entire herd and the results confirm we remain clean and clear of CAE, CL, and Johne's. Copies of complete test results are always available for inspection by prospective buyers.

All our goats are either disbudded or naturally hornless (polled) and we suggest they live with other disbudded or hornless animals. Under no circumstances will we send a goat to a home where they will live alone. There must be at least two goats kept together at all times. This means a doe needs to be with at least one other doe or a wether at all times and a buck needs to be with at least one other buck or a whether of similar size/weight as a companion. The only other option is to practice rotational breeding. The ideal set-up for rotational breeding is to select three does and a buck or two does, a wether, and a buck. In a three-doe, one-buck rotational breeding scenario, the does are rotated between the buck and doe pen for breeding. There are always two does in the doe pen and one in the buck pen. In a two-doe, one-wether, one-buck set-up, the wether rotates between the buck and doe pen, depending on when a doe is in with the buck for breeding. In any of these plans, no one is ever alone except for a brief period at kidding time or when they are isolated for illness. This is ideal for herd (prey) animals that need safety, defense, and warmth in numbers, so please plan accordingly. We have plenty of other goats to pair and we do offer discounts for multiple purchases. Our goats may go in pairs, as companions to any of our other goats for sale from our herd, or to another solid, experienced home with other goats of their size. If you don't have experience with goats, we can help you build a network of mentors!

We pet, farm, house, & barn sit!  We know you don't want to needlessly stress out your animals while you're away! Don't board them out, let us pet, farm, house, and barn sit for you! We are a responsible, professional, drug-free, alcohol-free, non-smoking, married couple with experience handling pets and livestock (cats, dogs, fish, turtles, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, horses, goats, ducks, chickens, turkeys, etc.).

In addition to the basics of watching and securing your property, collecting mail and newspapers, watering plants, opening and closing window coverings, turning lights on and off, and tidying up, we can feed and medicate animals, clean litterboxes, collect eggs, milk goats, handle animals for the veterinarian and farrier, rotate turn-out, blanket animals, check fences, and more!  We are familiar with off-grid power systems and wood stoves and we're also willing to learn with new animals and tasks.  Your animals will be much more comfortable at home, on their same diets and routines, and you'll know everything is safe and secure.

Let us give you peace of mind while you're away. We're experienced and have references. Email us your approximate location, the month of absence (for your protection, please do not send your exact dates until we connect!), and a summary of your needs.  If you have a budget in mind, please include this in your email.  We'll do our best to help!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Need help setting up the perfect area for your new animals?  We're always learning from our peers and we hope we can pass what we learn on to others to benefit their stock.  If you would like to schedule a free site visit for a friendly chat and some helpful advice, please contact us.  We can offer tips on general lay-out considering drainage, wind, and weather, shelters (stalls, barns, and lean-tos), turn-out pens (pastures or dry lots), feed storage, milking parlors, and general animal husbandry.  We're also especially experienced at planning and building fencing (particularly electric horse fencing).  At least we can welcome you to the community and put you in touch with others with common interests in your locale!
