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.
