2019 Kids:
|
|
Peanut/Abraham
Our does typically kid during daylight hours. Leave it to Peanut to shake things up a bit! She is now the second doe on our farm to ever kid in the middle of the night! It was worth it, though. She had a textbook kidding to beautiful buck/doe twins! The firstborn tan buck was a decent size, weighing in at just over 7lbs. He dwarfed his brown sister, who weighed in at just over 5lbs. Both kids are doing great and Peanut has taken to mothering like a pro! The planned pedigree for these cuties can be seen here.

Mimi/Abraham
We went to the barn for morning chores one morning to find Mimi with blood on her backside. We were prepared for a dead kid, but when we went in to try to pull the kid, things were so tight and her uterus so dry that it took us 4 hours to pull the dead doeling. Mimi's uterus ruptured at some point during that time and we euthanized her as soon as we found this.
Those are the days we hate about farming. We miss beautiful Mimi and her goofy antics in the barn. It was a rough day, but we were surrounded by amazing friends who came to help as well as an excellent veterinarian. We are praying for a smoother kidding season from here on out!

Pansy/Abraham
What could be better than a set of strong, healthy twins?! Well, perhaps if they were twin DOES! The Pearl Primrose Pansy finally gave up her kid load today and we couldn't be happier! Our whole family happened to be home to welcome these new girls. Pansy is amazing and her 7lb2oz tan daughter was followed easily by her 7lb2oz black daughter. Penny and Pepper are beautiful and we are so excited they are finally here! Their planned pedigree may be viewed here.
White Fields Farm Sales Policy
Our prices for Purebred and American Nubian kids start at $300-$600. Prices for grade kids start at $250-$300 for grade does and $100 for grade bucklings/wethers.
At White Fields Farm, we like to give ourselves time to make our herd retention decisions based on what we see from our kids and their dams over several months. Therefore, we rarely take deposits on unborn kids.
You may request a kid from a planned breeding by contacting us by phone or email. We keep a list of kids requested and will contact you as soon as we have made our retention decisions for the year and if we have a kid available to meet your request. Once we have contacted you, we require a deposit of $100 to hold the kid until weaning or pickup, with the balance due upon pickup of the kid.
In the case of a weaned kid or adult animal offered for sale, we request a minimum of half the purchase price down as a deposit with the remainder due within two weeks of receipt of deposit or upon pick up of the animal.
No animal will leave our farm until paid in full.
If you are interested in buying a goat, please contact Ande prior to sending a deposit to discuss availability at [email protected] or 303-818-0347.
Please make checks or money orders payable to Andrea or Andrew Pellett.
Doe kids will be dam raised for a minimum of 10-12 weeks unless other arrangements have been made. Buck kids will be dam raised for at least 8-10 weeks based on their behavior.
Any goat not picked up by the date agreed upon by White Fields Farm will incur an additional boarding fee of $7 per day.
All of our kids are sold disbudded unless otherwise agreed upon and paid in full by 10 days after birth. Any wethers sold will be castrated just prior to leaving our farm.
Although we are diligent to maintain the health of all animals on our farm, we will not be responsible for the sickness, injury or death of any reserved kid after 12 weeks old or of any animal once it has left our farm.
We prefer animals to be picked up at our farm, though we are willing to discuss other options with you.
We will honor requests for kids to the best of our ability, but we do reserve the right to retain any animal born on our farm for our herd's needs.
Deposits shall be refunded if your choice of kid is not born, is retained for our herd or if it does not meet our standard of quality. Deposits will not be refunded on an order that is canceled by the buyer after it is made.
Our goats are guaranteed CAE negative. Any other testing may be performed at the buyer's request and at the buyer's expense. Health Certificates may be obtained at the buyer's request and at the buyer's expense.
Goats kids will come with their application for registration with the American Dairy Goat Association. Adult goats will come with their ADGA registration papers. We have Purebred, American, and Grade Nubians. The goats listed may be assumed purebred unless otherwise noted.
