Consignments need to be there by 2 and livestock before 3 on Sat. if you want it advertised on Facebook. We take consignments till 3 only and livestock till 5 or after until the sale is over.

If you are planning on bringing stock let us know so we can advertise it on the web page as coming and maybe we can get some extra buyers for your livestock ...but we post everything on the web page by noon Fri. so get that info to us by then.  Help yourself by letting us advertise what you are bringing. Pictures are posted on Facebook after livestock is received Fri. night or Sat. morning.

Let us know before Fri noon what you are bringing so we can post it.  People check to see what is coming so if we can post it for you, you may be able to get extra buyers for what you are bringing.

Also for your information: We are trying to get a credit card processor lined up for use of debit cards at the sale.  We could never take them because of the fees.  Even when a co says it cost this much there were hidden fees especially to a retailer with small purchases or a low amount of usage.  This is what kept us from taking cards at the lawnmower shop.  They said 3% but with the other fees (statement fee $10, low processing sale fee $25.00,  min. amt of sales fee $25)  it ran from 20% up to 50% for us one month. With fees that high we could no way do cards at the auction.  But this company we are getting set up with pays us and charges you the sale invoice and fees.  We get our money which is passed on to the seller.  If you do not want to pay the fees then bring cash or approved check. We hope to have this instituted soon.  There is apparently an issue in getting these processors in so we are still on the waiting list. All sales are final and no recourse just as it is at the sale if you pay cash.  You see the animal, you bid on the animal, and once you get the high bid it is yours. An auction bid is the only verbal contract to stand up in court. It will be cash or approved check again this sale.  Sorry for the delay- not us the problem - it’s them. Everything is on backorder.  We have our account set up and ready.

Phone service is not the best. Call back if no answer or if we do not return your missed call shortly.  We have had voice messages show up a day later.

Beware of buying stations and buyers who come to the farm to buy.  Goats and sheep are in short supply and bringing good prices.  Don’t sell yourself short. Know what they are bringing at the sale and KNOW your weights.   Know what you have and what it should bring or if buying know what you are getting.

It’s been wet for quite a while.  Parasites are working hard in herds right now.  Be sure and watch for them. Do not feed on the ground and rotate pastures if you can.  Don’t let parasites rob you of profits.   And if they hit don’t just worm once do it every 5-7 days for 3 or 4 times to clean them up. Wormy or sick goats or sheep don’t bring much money and dead ones sure don’t.  Watch them closely in wet weather.

Occasionally we have someone who wants to sell a Llama or Pyrenees or Anatolia or crossed Pyr/Ana guard dogs and we will sell them.  We do not sell other breeds of dogs.   The other common used guard animal is a donkey and we do not sell those.

We get extra Goat and Sheep magazine and Ranch and Rural Living magazines and you are welcome to pick up either one or both. They have some really good articles.  We lay these out on the tables and you can take one if you like.
