"Please remove our ad... All have been sold. Just a note - we had many hits off of this listing on your website...thank you so much for the opportunity to advertise here."

SELLERS BEWARE: If you receive a request to purchase your item involving wire transfers or cashier's checks, especially from overseas, there is a very good chance it is a scam. Frequently the potential buyer will have poor grammar and spelling, your own words from your ad will appear in the subject line, and the buyer promises to have an "agent" or shipping company come by and pick up the item. If they insist on using a cashier's check or wire transfer and no other method of payment, do not proceed. Click here to read an article about this type of scam.

Nigerian Dwarf goats for sale, wethers, does and bucks. $50 to $200. All must go, moving! (SE PA) e-mail Sara 7/10
Starter or expansion herd of 19 doelings and a buckling for sale in West Central PA. The kids were all born between February and May and are ready to go to a new home. It is a lovely herd of mixed Alpine, Toggenburg, LaMancha, all with a Nubian father. Buckling and a few doelings are 3/4 Nubian. We're a successful goat dairy/creamery; the mothers are all good milkers. Our herd is CL- and CAE-free. All the kids have received their Perfingens C&D/Tetanus vaccine and booster. They are also friendly, used to being handled. The kids have been on our certified organic pastures and hay since their rumens started up, but they are not certified themselves. We are asking $100/doeling and $125 for buckline or $1500 for the whole herd. We'd prefer to have the herd to go together (lots of relationships in there). That's why the herd discount. e-mail Lucinda or Steve or call 814-568-1207 7/10
