Myotonic Goat Registry (MGR) Registration Certificate, Transfer Memo and a Shakerag Cove Health Record will be given to new owner at time of full payment. If there isn't time to register them myself I will give the new owner all the necessary paperwork so they can register their goat. If there is time, the new owner can choose the goat's registered name. Our farm name will be on all our kid's registered names even if the kid is registered by the buyer. We try to register all our kids. We think it's important to the myotonic breed that all the eligible myotonic babies are registered .This way everyone that is involved with this wonderful breed will have as much knowledge as possible about each goat registered with the MGR. 2/2014*** The MGR has increased their rates to register and transfer a goat. We will still include registration in the price of your goat if the full purchase price is being paid. If a discount price has been negotiated (because more than one goat is being purchased) then the cost of registrations will be added to the total discounted price.
Any health tests and/or health certificate can be done by our veterinarian at the buyer's expense.
Each state has it's own requirements as far as what tests are needed to bring animals into the state. It is the buyer's responsibility to find out what is needed. If a buyer requests a health certificate we will transport the kid to our vet so the requested exam(s) and forms can be completed. The cost for this will be the buyer's responsibility.
Buyers are expected to provide safe and comfortable transportation for the goat(s). Ideally the goat(s) should be inside of a vehicle. If inside isn't possible they can not be tied in an open truck bed or trailer, they need to be in a covered cage or pen. The floor of the pen should have layers of newspaper and then straw or pine chips. We reserve the right to refuse to sell or allow transportation of our goats with those that we feel are not responsible for the safety of our animals. The goats are sold with no collars. Buyers, please bring a collar for your new goat if you feel a need.
To reserve a goat we will need a $100 deposit (with 10 days for the check to clear). The remainder of the purchase price is due when the goat is picked up (please pay with cash). Goats not picked up within 30 days of the scheduled pick-up date will revert back to being property of Shakerag Cove Farms and no refund will be given on any money paid unless other written arrangements have been made. If anything were to happen to the goat and it become unavailable (between the deposit paid time and pickup) then a total refund of the deposit will be given.
On occasion we may be able to deliver a goat for an extra charge. Check with us at time of purchase. We do not ship goats.
