Sales Contract for Serendipitous Summer Farms Goats

***Please sign and date this contract and return via fax, email or mail to:

Candice Schulz 
384 Rt. K 
Pineville, MO 64856




Please retain a copy for your records.

All Myotonic (fainting) kids will be registered as "Serendipitous Summer Farms". If the buyer decides to register the goat with any other registry than Myotonic Goat Registry, the purchased goat must be registered under the "Serendipitous Summer Farms" name. This insures that the correct lineage and genetics for each goat are properly recorded and traceable. The buyer will sign this sales contract and send it back to Serendipitous Summer Farms (Candice Schulz), with the non-refundable deposit of $50.00 per goat. This deposit is non-refundable unless the goat has become permanently injured or deceased. This protects you, as well as it protects us, the seller, from holding onto goats that were supposed to be purchased but were never paid for. In addition, no goat will be allowed to leave or farm if it is not properly secured in a crate or trailer. Tied goats are all too often injured or strangled and it is not worth taking a risk.  

PAYMENT TERMS: We do require a deposit of $50.00 to hold a goat. Arrangements need to be made and agreed upon my both parties for a pick up date. Goats not picked up within 30 days of the pick-up date agreed upon will become the property of Serendipitous Summer Farms and no refund of monies paid will be given. We do reserve the right to retain any goat over reservations of the health and well-being of said goat and your goat must be paid in cash on pick up day. Also, Please note: If personal checks or money orders are used for payment they require a period of 10 days to clear the bank prior to pick up of the animal. For convenience of the buyer, PayPal can be used for payment, however there is a 3% fee added to the total price of the animal to cover charges PayPal passes on to us as a seller.

Feeding instructions for goat care



Feeding:

Before you get your goats, you need to make sure you have all the feeding equipment they need, as well as a stockpile of food. All goats need certain kinds of feed, but they have differing nutritional requirements depending on their gender and what stage of life they're in.

Goats are browsers, like deer, which means they prefer trees, bushes, and woody weeds; rather than standing still and eating grass down to the roots, they like to stay on the move, eating a bit of this and a bit of that. Goats can learn to graze a pasture, but don't expect it to be "mowed." The grass helps supplement the goats' diet, but low grazing also can spread parasites.

Goats have specific nutritional needs, only some of which are met by the plants on your farm that they browse on. You have to provide feed for the needs that can't be met by browsing. Unless you have a lot of property with a variety of browse, feed will be your biggest expense in raising goats. Don't scrimp on goat feed — it will pay dividends in good health, milk production, and lower veterinary bills.

Feeding hay and alfalfa

Hay is the main source of nutrients for goats in non-grazing seasons, or all the time if they don't have access to browse. Grass hay provides a moderate amount of protein and energy for the goat diet. Legume hays, such as clover and alfalfa, usually have more protein, vitamins, and minerals, particularly calcium, than grass hays. This varies depending on the maturity of the hay or alfalfa and the way that it's cured and stored.

Each goat needs 2 to 4 pounds of hay each day, although some of this need can be met by available pasture or other forage. Make it available free choice throughout the day when pasture is unavailable or feed twice a day when goats are also browsing.

You can feed alfalfa (and some grass hays) in pellet form if you don't have storage or if you want to mix it with grain. The goats don't waste so much alfalfa when it's in pellets, and you can limit who gets it by combining it with their grain.

Using chaffhaye instead of hay and alfalfa

Chaffhaye is forage in a bag and substitutes for hay. To make chaffhaye, producers cut early alfalfa or grass, chop it, mist it with molasses, add the culture bacillus subtillis, and vacuum-pack it into 50-pound bags. The treated hay ferments in the bag, adding good bacteria that's easy for goats to digest. It provides more energy, vitamins, and minerals than dried hay.

Goats need up to 2 pounds of chaffhaye per 100 pounds of body weight when you feed it as an alternative to hay. The nutritional value of one 50-pound bag of chaffhaye is equivalent to an 85- to 100-pound bale of good-quality hay. 

Feeding grain

Grain or pelleted grain mixes add protein, vitamins, and minerals to a goat's diet. Some are formulated specifically for goats. Grain options include the following:

· Whole grain: This is the whole, unprocessed grain seed head.

· Pelleted grain: A product made from grain or grain byproducts milled into small pieces and then made into pellets by adding a binding agent.

· Rolled grain: Nutritionally identical to whole grain, rolled grain is simply rolled so that it's flat.

· Texturized grain: Similar to rolled grain, texturized feed mixes usually have other ingredients added to improve nutrition.












Preparing Your Property for Raising Goats:

Bringing home goats requires some forethought on your part so that you can keep your goats safe and healthy and protect them from predators. Here’s a glimpse of the projects you need to undertake before you get your goats:

· Build housing or get current housing ready. Goats need some kind of shelter from the elements and a safe place to bunk down. In addition, you might want a dedicated area for milking or kidding, if you decide to breed your goats.

· Build a fence or check your fencing for security. Goats are smart and curious, and they will head out into the neighborhood if given the chance. Furthermore, wolves, wild dogs, and other predators would love to be able to get at your goats, and so you need to do your best to keep them out.

· Buy feed and feeding equipment. Goats need hay, grain, minerals, and other supplemental feed, depending on the kind of goats you get, their stage of life, and the way you intend to use them. And of course, your goats need clean, fresh water every day. At a minimum, you need

· Feed storage containers

· Hoof Trimmers (Trim goat hooves about 3-4 times a year)

· Hay Manger

· Mineral feeder

· Water buckets

· Put together a first aid kit. Accidents and illnesses are inevitable, and so you need to be ready for common problems you’re likely to face as you raise goats, from stopping the bleeding from a hoof-trimming injury to giving injections to combat infections or illnesses.

· Goat-proof your yard or pasture. Goats are grazers, which means that they move from plant to plant and tree to tree, eating all the way. Some of the common plants that homeowners use for landscaping can poison goats, and so you need to clear them out. You may also want to protect the trees that you can’t or don’t want to remove but adding some protection to their trunks.








Recognizing the Signs of a Sick Goat

Your goats will let you know when something’s wrong, but you need to recognize the signs. You need to investigate further or begin taking action if you see the following signs of illness:

· Not chewing cud

· Not getting up

· Pressing her head against wall or fence

· Not eating

· Feces aren’t pelleted

· Not urinating or straining to urinate

· Not drinking

· Pale or grey eyelids or gums

· Hot udder

· Limping or staggering

· Ears held oddly

· Isolating himself from the herd

· Grinding teeth

· Coughing

· Unusual crying

· Runny nose or eyes



***Normal goat temperature~ 101°F to 103°F

As a rule of thumb,  temperatures lower than normal is a sign of pneumonia , and a temperature higher than normal usually means an infection.

Treat kids with 1/4 to 1/2 baby aspirin and adults with at least one baby aspirin. A reasonable aspirin dosage would be to compare the weight of the goat to a human being and medicate accordingly. Do not use other pain relievers, such as Advil, Aleve, Tylenol, etc. --- only baby aspirin.
