FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

How much is a baby goat?

We strive to match up the right goat to your needs. Pricing depends on pedigree, gender, physical attributes, bottle vs dam feeding and overall availability. Generally our bucklings are $450-500 and our doelings are $750-850.
Do you deliver?

Yes! We still have deep roots on Long Island where our passion for hobby farming began. We can deliver to Long Island or within 2 hours of our farm in NJ. We can also suggest transporters for out of state donkey sales.
How do I reserve a goat or donkey?

Contact Grace at sweetdreamsacres@gmail.com to discuss your needs and the animals that are available/expected.
Do you have any donkeys available?

We have 10 breeding age jennies so there is always a foal due. Our wait list for donkeys born on the farm is long but it's not strictly first-come, first-served. We aim to match buyers with donkeys based on where we think they'll thrive, buyer seriousness, if they are or referred by previous customers, and location and I also work with two trusted partners that prefer not to sell directly to buyers. Getting donkeys from these partners is often faster and so far it’s working well. In these scenarios I learn what a buyer is looking for and then buy the donkey myself, check it out and if it is as expected re-sell to the buyer.
Can I visit your farm?

We do not have a farm that is generally open to the public but you are welcome to visit with us if you are ready to make a deposit and when you pickup your animal. We can also recommend several nice farms locally that are equipped for visitors. Tewksbury Township is a beautiful day trip.
How to I learn more about caring for goats and donkeys?

There are so many great resources on the internet and on YouTube. We hope to start our own channel as we learn more ourselves! We find ourselves often referring to this website: https://fiascofarm.com for our goats and https://www.thedonkeysanctuary.org.uk/for-owners/donkey-health-and-welfare/hyperlipaemia-in-donkeys for our donkeys.
Can I get a health certificate for my goat or donkey before finalizing a purchase?

Yes! Our vet (or a vet of your choosing) can prepare a wellness certificate here at your expense reimbursable if there is a problem. We will work with you to coordinate the details.
Do you have any baby goats available now?

Most of our goats kid in the spring though we are considering adding a smaller fall kidding. We maintain a wait list, females generally go quickly, there is more availability for males.
Are your kids bottle or dam raised?

We have a combination of both! Some exclusively dam, some exclusively bottle and we are starting to dual feed some! Let us know your preference and we can try to match you up!
