I have shipped lambs to buyers in other states (including California) via Delta Air Freight (http://www.delta.com/travel/trav_serv/pet_travel/pet_cargo/index.jsp). It's $153 plus the price of a shipping crate and health certificate for a lamb about 3 months old or less. Tricky to ship during summer and winter because they have seasonal temperature restrictions that apply to point of origin, destination, and all stops along the way. I also have received a lamb via Delta from South Carolina.

Another good option is Ron Keener's truck service (you contact him via his Yahoo group at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TravelWithRonK) Keener has an excellent reputation for hands-on care during his cross-country trips hauling everyone's critters.

goats and sheep and dogs -
first animal up to 500 miles - negotiated
first animal up to 1000 miles - $150
first animal up to 1500 miles - $200
first animal up to 2000 miles - $250
first animal up to 2500 miles - $300
first animal over 2500 miles - $350

mileage will be on a 'as the crow flies' basis as given by computer map program calculations. The second thru ninth animal being picked up from and delivered to the same points will be $50 each.

Hope this helps

Carol
