Taylor RIdge Farms Sales Policy
​Taylor Ridge Farms reserves the right to retain any doe or buck for their breeding operation or any
public sale offering (i.e. online sale). Starting in 2023, the ONLY reservation that can be placed on an
animal is a buck kid reservation. Doe kids and milkers does can not be reserved, however we start a list
on a first come, first serve basis for doe kids and milkers. Occasionally, we will have a mature buck
available- please reach out to discuss that.
All buck kid reservations require a $100 non-refundable deposit. That deposit can be transferred from
year to year and from breeding to breeding. All buck kids sold will be sold as registered, transferred into
your ADGA name, DNA- typed, and with the right to name the buck kid; unless otherwise noted. We
reserve the right to acquire 10 straws of semen at cost of collection. We do not have the right of first
refusal on any buck kids being sold. If interested in a buck kid, please reach out via email, Facebook
message, or text message for information on reserving a buck.
We will NOT accept reservations for doe kids or mature milkers. If interested in a doe kid or milker,
please reach out via email, Facebook message, or text message to be added to our list for animals in the
spring. In the spring, we will work on a first come, first serve basis down said list for interest in animals.
After contact, a $100 deposit is required within 7 days of notification. We will try to accommodate any
requests for doe kids, however we can not always guarantee any specific doe kid requests. We do not
have the right of first refusal on any doe kids or milking does being sold.
All semen and embryo sales are nonrefundable. We do not guarantee any quality of semen collected by
buck’s at Taylor Ridge Farm’s AFTER it has left the Taylor Ridge Farm tank. We do not guarantee the
quality of the embryo upon leaving our tank and are not responsible for any quality issues after the sale.
Semen/ embryos can be picked up from us at shows we attend, the ADGA National Show (if in
attendance), and at the farm. For any specific other items, please arrange that. Semen can be shipped
out of Interglobe or picked up at their location in Pontiac, IL. Once agreed upon, buyer of semen or
embryo has 6 months to arrange pick up of semen or embryos. If not arranged within 6 months, Taylor
Ridge Farms reserves the right to retain that semen or embryos.
After an animal is agreed upon by both the buyer and the seller, the buyer will have 30 days to pick up
the animal, unless otherwise agreed upon by both parties. After 30 days, a $10 boarding fee per week
will be assessed starting on day 31 after the agreement is made. We encourage pick up on the farm in
person to see related animals. We have an extensive network of routes to transport on for a fee. We do
have the ability to air ship out of Chicago O’Hare. All animals air shipped will incure a drop off fee on top
of cost of flight, health certificate, and/ other fees and supplies associated with airshipping. a fee will be
assessed for drop off to the airport. When working with ground transport, please note if we have to
meet the transporter in any place not within a 10 mile radius of the house we will be charging mileage
to the buyer at .58 cents a mile. All shippers will be charged $50 for a health certificate.
All kids born on the farm are raised on a CAE prevention program and are pan raised. We will be happy
to test all mature animals for CAE/ JOHNES/ CL at the buyers expense if purchasing a mature animal. WE
WILL NOT REPLACE AN ANIMAL AFTER IT HAS BEEN EXPOSED TO ANOTHER HERD AFTER A PERIOD OF
TIME AND LATER TESTS POSITIVE for CAE/ CL/ JOHNES. We will assist in any DNA exclusions that may
arise with the ADGA PPM and the individual buyer.
