Grace Hill Farm Sales Agreement
Deposits
A $50 non-refundable deposit per goat, which goes to the purchase price, is required to hold/reserve a born kid or an adult. Deposit must be received within 24 hours of your chosen animal or you forfeit your reservation.
Payment
Any reserved goat must be paid in full by the pick up date – 8-12 weeks for a dam raised kid. If unable to pay in full by pick update, any previous payments will be forfeited and non-refunded.
We accept cash or payment through PayPal. If using PayPal, please send money as ‘Friends and Family’. Credit/Debit card payments can be made on our website using PayPal even if you do not have a PayPal account. You can check out as a guest and choose to pay via credit/debit card. We do not accept checks as a form of payment.
Cancellations
Grace Hill Farm reserves the right to cancel any reservation at any time and a full refund will be returned to the buyer. If a deposit has been placed on an animal, it may be applied to the purchase of another animal or refunded. If the buyer backs out of the sale, deposit will not be refunded. All breedings are subject to change until sire is confirmed and doe has been bred.
All sales are final.
Health Guarantee
All goats are guaranteed to be healthy upon leaving our farm. Buyer has the right to have any goat examined by a veterinarian at buyer’s expense prior to pickup. All animals are examined by the seller on the day of travel and buyer is encouraged to examine animal prior to taking possession. No goat leaves the farm showing signs of illness. Grace Hill Farm assumes no responsibility once the animal leaves the farm as we have no control over any stress the goat may experience due to travel, new environment, or new owner management practices, care, and handling.
Grace Hill Farm regularly tests for CAE, CL, and Johne’s and we’ve always had negative results. Current testing results are available upon request. All of our goats have tested negative as of 2021. Our herd is regularly vaccinated for CDT and Rabies. Deworming is done on an as needed basis.
If an animal is sold for ‘breeding purposes’ and is found to be sterile by a licensed veterinarian, a refund for the original purchase price will be issued upon receipt of veterinarian report stating that the animal is sterile due to genetic reason.
If travelling out of PA, please check with your state to see what testing is required. Any required testing will be done prior to the goat leaving our farm but the buyer is responsible for the costs. All goats, regardless of sex will require a tattoo and certificate of identification/registration to leave PA. Buyers are responsible for additional costs for nonbreeding animals.
Disbudding
It is our practice to disbud all kids within the first 1-2 weeks. Our goats are bred for showing and ADGA sanctioned shows currently do no permit horns. We do not sell goats with horns.
Shipping
Buyer is responsible for all shipping costs and arrangements. We can recommend several shippers that we have personally used. Health papers are required to ship goats and buyer will be charged for all costs for the vet to complete the certificate.
