End of an Era

Since our animals are now at new homes, we are officially retired from raising Highland Cattle.  However, we still enjoy hearing from our old customers to see how the animals we raised are doing.  We look forward to hearing how our animals have provided success to their new owners.

We want to take this opportunity to thank everyone who have purchased cattle from us since we began raising Highlands in 1988.  We have met meny wonderful people and attended many National Highland Conventions around the United States.  We have participated in  many NCHCA meetings and regional shows.  We also enjoyed working with our granddaughters and other young helpers to train cattle to participate in our regional shows.  Both animals and young people have benefitted from these experiences.

We wish everyone much success and happiness in the future with raising Highland cattle.  They are truly a wonderful breed!

New Picture of Yearling Bull for Sale

This picture was taken 4-28-11. Yearling bull X-3 continues to grow and looks great except for muddy feet.  He appears to have a gentle disposition and promises to be a great herd sire.   SOLD

Saying Goodbye to our Females

Last Thursday was a sad day as we said goodbye to our remaining beloved females.  The cows, MC Maren, MC Buttercup, and MC Princess moved to their wonderful new home at Cobblestone Farm in Wisconsin.
The heifers, MC Jeanette and MC Lena also have a wonderful new home at Almosta Farm in Nebraska. 

I am so happy and grateful that they've gone to such good homes with wonderful caretakers.

We have one yearling bull and a yearling steer available in the For Sale section.
