Breeders of Registered Myotonic Goats in Griswold Connecticut

Goat Sales Policy
When selection is made a $50.00 (per animal) non refundable deposit is required to hold goat(s) until weaning age (if applicable) within 7 business days after a verbal/written confirmation on a particular goat(s). If we don't receive the non-refundable deposit within 7 business days, the goat(s) will be put back up for sale.

Registration
All our goats are registered with Myotonic Goat Registry. MGR Certificate and Transfer Memo will be given to the new buyer. The buyer will be responsible for transferring the registration into their name. An application for joining and other information about MGR will be provided. If the buyer prefers to register with the International Fainting Goat Association, the Registration Application will be completed and signed as required by seller. It will be the buyer's
responsibility to register the goat with the IFGA. Buyer will still be given the MGR Registration Certificate and Transfer Memo.
