Our Reservation Phases

PHASE 1 "Pre-Kidding":

You will be put on a "to call" list, free of charge, in the order of reservation request.

 

PHASE 2 "Kidding & Deposit":

Once kids hit the ground, you will be notified with in the first 7 days with pictures and detailed information.  At that time you have 48 hours to decide to provide a $50 non-refundable "hold" deposit on your gender of choice.  

 

*We will only collect deposits on total number of kids available for sale.  If you choose, we will keep you on a alternate list if there are any kids available after the 6 week and reservations made.

 

PHASE 3 "6 Weeks old,  Selection & 2nd Deposit":

At Tuttle Family Farm, we know the conformation of kids can change through out the the growing process so we wait until 6 weeks to allow ample time for us to decide on any retainees and allow you to have good subjects for your decision.  You may be able to visit the farm or we will happily provide pictures and/or videos to aid in your decision.

 

If you choose to proceed with your purchase, a second deposit will be requested to total 50% of the purchase price.

 

 PLEASE NOTE: If you choose not to proceed with your purchase, you will forfeit your original $50 "hold" deposit.

 

PHASE 4 "Pick-Up & Balance Due":

The balance of your purchase price will be due upon pick up or delivery.

 

 

Other Reservation Information

Tuttle Family Farm reserves the right to retain any buckling or doeling from any of the breeding pairs.

 

Bucklings and wethers are typically weaned and ready for pick up around 8-10 weeks old.  Does are weaned and ready for pick up around 10-12 weeks old.

 

We may consider bottle babies or wethers from any breeding pair.  Please let us know if that is what you would like to be considered for.  Bottle babies will be ready for pick up after 1-2 weeks of age and once they are accustomed to the bottle.

 

All kids from our farm will be disbudded within the first 2 weeks of kidding.  If born polled, they will be left natural and may develop small girraffe style horn bumps/nubs.

 

If kids are purchased for AGDA registration, they will tatooed, to match registration forms.

 

If wethered, the kid will be banded a few days before pick up, but before 16 weeks of age.

 

Tuttle Family Farm will also provide buyers with a small supply of our current feed and hay in order that the kids can have a slow transition to their new home's feed and hay selection.
