Looking to purchase semen? We have completed an inventory of our tanks and have decided to part with quite a few straws in our stash and have an extensive list of available semen for sale. Below are linkts to an updated spreadsheet of available semen which includes both Nubians and Nigerian Dwarf semen. 

Looking for a mature animal to purchase? We will probably have a few milkers being offered for sale by late spring (May/June 2025), so let us know if you are interested in adding a mature animal to your herd and we'll let you know if something happens to come available after all of the does have freshened in the spring. We will not make any advance commitments to sell specific animals.

To reserve your LakeShore kid, we ask that you contact us first for reservation availability, then send a deposit of $100 per kid ordered ($200 for International Deposits). Please make checks payable to Megan Carter. We also accept PayPal or Venmo (these are our preferred methods of payment). Reservations are made based on the order in which deposits are received. A reservation is not made until we have received your deposit. When choosing a kid, please make a first and second choice, with the first choice kidding before or close to the due date of the second choice if possible, in the event that your first choice is not available. We will only be accepting two buck kid and one doe kid, first choice reservations, per animal and request that a first and second choice selection is made. Buck reservations on first fresheners are conditional on the doe freshening meeting our expectations of quality. If we are unable to fill your order or if the animal does not meet our standards of quality, your deposit may be transferred to another choice, carried over to the following year or refunded upon request. We do reserve the right to retain any animal on the sales list for herd replacement, or withdraw from sale an animal that does not meet our quality standards. In the event that we exercise that right, your deposit will immediately be refunded. Deposits are not refunded on cancelled orders. Kids that are born that have not been pre-reserved, will be offered first to buyers whose reservations could not be filled. We do not guarantee prices for animals ordered after birth.
Buyers will be notified of the birth of their kid and payment in full is due within 10 days of notification of birth. Prices quoted are for pre-ordered kids picked up or shipped by 5 weeks of age. Any animal not shipped or picked up by the time they are 5 weeks of age will be subject to a per day boarding fee, unless other arrangements have been made in advance. 
Our prices do not include health papers, shipping crate, shipping fees, and an airport delivery fee. A shipping advance in the amount of $525 for a single kid (combined weight under 50 lbs.) and $665 for two kids (combined weight between 51 to 70 lbs.) in a crate is due prior to time of shipping (based on Delta Airlines 2024 shipping rates). No animal will be shipped until all fees (estimated airfare, crate, health cerificate, and delivery fee in addition to the animal cost) are paid in full. We also work with several different ground transporters and will meet up with transporters along major Interstates or they are welcome to come to our farm for pick-up. We provide ADGA registration and transfers for any kid purchased by an ADGA member following the shipment of your kid and after any remaining balance has been paid.
All bucks (mature or kids) are sold with the option that we will be able to purchase 20 straws of semen back at the per straw cost of collection. We do ask that you refrain from marketing your LakeShore bred buckling's semen until you have been able to evaluate his daughters in milk.

International Purchases: In addition to the purchase price of the kid and the cost for International health papers, we also charge a labor and delivery fee of $125 for International shipments. This is due to the extensive amount of time that it takes to arrange health papers and coordinate International shipments, when compared to domestic shipments.
