I was hoping for a repeat breeding of Guantanamo EX90 or Excelsior VG88 (Y/FF) and got two, so one must go to keep things manageable! I would keep both of these does if I had the room and extra time this year so my loss is your gain.

Another late kid I would love to hold on to, but considering I have her yearling full sister I must let this one go. She could be the last Nubian doe kid we offer in 2022.

Purchasing a Hops N Lops Kid:
If you are interested in purchasing a kid from us or placing a reservation for a future kid, please review the following information. We make an effort to be upfront in how our reservation process works and what you will expect. Every herd owner has their own preference on what works best for their situation, this is just what we have found to be the most organized process and to make sure those interested in our animals are serious about purchasing and will provide the purchased animal(s) with a good home.
Reserving a Kid:
We highly recommend reserving a kid if you are interested in purchasing an animal from us. This saves your place in line for the doe you are interested to have the opportunity to purchase a kid that becomes available.
This involved placings a non-refundable $100 deposit (per kid you intend to purchase) unless we are unable to fulfill your reservation. If we are unable to fulfill the reservation, you are welcome to roll your deposit over to the following year or move it to an available kid or reservation. If you are flexible and want a kid from the current kidding season we highly encourage you to place a second or third choice at not added cost, but they must be due the same time or later than the first choice. This deposit is non-refundable if you cancel the reservation for any reason.
Please be sure to let us know exactly what you're looking for so we can help guide you in the right direction. The more information on your herd goals and current genetics the better we will be able to help you. We make no guarantees about the show success, color, maternal instincts, productivity or any other physical or performance trait of the animal. These are promises no breeder can make. We have and continue to offer as much performance data on our animals as possible through participating in linear appraisal, milk test, DNA typing and shows. We try to be as upfront about our genetics and if we feel our herd or a line may be the best choice for you.
You will be notified when the doe or does you have placed a reservation on are confirmed bred and once they kid. Once you have been notified the reservation has been fulfilled you have five days to send the full payment via cash, check or PayPal. If you choose PayPal, please use the friends and family option or you will need to pay the PayPal fees included in the other payment options. In 2022, kids must be picked up by 12 days old unless otherwise agreed upon such as an air-shipping situation. Due to a busy schedule in 2022 and the foreseeable future, this will be required for all kids during future kidding seasons as well.
Transport:
We expect to be able to airship kids in 2022 pending the pandemic situation. Please note that there was a considerable price increase in 2021 so at this point we are expecting shipping to be at least $300-400, plus the price of a kennel and required interstate veterinary paperwork and testing. We ship primarily using Delta and American out of Bradley International Airport in Connecticut. We do allow ground transport if they are reputable and willing to come close enough to us in Harwinton, CT.
Photos of Kids:
Due to the limited help, we do not guarantee we can get side profile or "posed" photos of kids prior to pick up. From our experience, a breeder's opinion is much more valuable than a photo of a brand new kid that is still unfolding. We strive to make sure anyone purchasing an animal understands what we think of the parents, their offspring and the dam line along with having generations of performance data behind our animals and are more than willing to answer questions about the genetics and performance of our animals. We do our best to make sure you are sent regular updates of your kid leading up to pick up or transport day.
Pet Wethers:
We do offer some pet wethers for sale at a very reduced price each spring, please contact us for more information. We do encourage those who plan to bring wethers to fairs as companions to inquire about getting their kid an ADGA Certificate of Identification, we are more than willing to submit this form with the fees covered by the buyer.
Other Notes:
The purchase price of the kid includes their registration that will be submitted online for for the fastest turnaround time. You are able to chose the name of the kid.
The listed price of kids does not account for any extra vet fees required for interstate travel paperwork and testing.
All kids leave disbudded and tattooed, no exceptions.
Please feel free to send us and email or call with any questions or inquires!
