CONTRACT TO PURCHASE LIVESTOCK

Reservations are filled in the order in which they are received. Please contact Maveric via email at guineahogs@hotmail.com prior to sending a deposit, to determine purchase price and availability.

Mulefoot and Guinea hog buyers will be given an application to register their pigs with the American Mulefoot Association or American Guinea Hog Association. You will be responsible to file the paperwork to register your pigs.

Veterinary health papers are required to transport pigs across State lines. Most states require health papers only, though some require specific blood or fecal tests. Our veterinarian, Pipestone Veterinary Clinic handles all health papers and contacts the receiving State for any permits or required tests. Maveric makes all arrangements for veterinary inspections. For health papers only, the cost is $47.50. Any additional blood tests will be charged at the same rate that our veterinarian bills us. All veterinary costs are the sole responsibility of the purchaser.

Pigs leave our farm healthy and sound. Maveric Heritage Ranch Co. is not liable for any injury sustained by a pig during flight or transport. Once the pig is released to the purchaser or the carrier, Maveric Heritage Ranch Co. is not liable for any injury, illness, death or veterinarian fees due to improper handling, feeding, medication, misc. ailments, etc; as we cannot guarantee proper care of the pig after purchase.

It is the purchaser's responsibility to gain the knowledge necessary to properly care for the pigs. Maveric Heritage Ranch Co. will answer any questions to the best of our knowledge regarding the care of pigs prior to purchase. A copy of Dr. McFarlen's "Pigs" book can be purchased through Amazon.com.

All transportation charges are the sole responsibility of the purchaser.

Complete payment for the pigs and veterinarian charges must be received prior to any pigs leaving the ranch.

If Purchaser decides not to complete this transaction, Purchaser will forfeit any deposit.
