Currently with Mom. He will be ready for new pastures once weaned at 5 months old.
We’re passionate about where our animals go. That’s why we do not sell our calves to petting farms or travelling zoos. These environments often over-handle animals and compromise their well-being. Instead, we seek homes where animals are cared for with respect and companionship.
A full sized Scottish Highland Cow ranges from 1,100lbs (female) to 2,000lbs (male) and typically measure in at around 48″ tall.
A micro or mini cow can range from 500-800lbs and is under 36″ and up to 42″ in height.
The difference between Micro and Mini is a Micro typically tested positive for the Chondro gene. Please note it is possible for a cow to still be growing after 3yrs old. It is also possible for a Micro cow positive for the chondro gene to grow taller than 36″. No breeder can 100% accurately provide you the final height of a calf. Height categories provided at birth are estimates by looking at parents sizes, birth size and chondro status.
Once you have selected your calf, we require a contract to be reviewed and signed. We require a 25% non refundable deposit to take the calf off the market. Final payment is due prior to picking up the calf and before it leaves the farm.
For male calves, we need to know if he is to be a bull or a steer, so we can have this procedure done.
We don’t typically dehorn. If this is something you require, it would be an extra charge. This needs to be done within a certain timeframe.
We send update pictures and/or videos while the calf is in our care. Your calf will be ready to go by approximately 5 months of age, after weaning process is complete.
We complete all necessary vet checks, vaccinations and provide your cattle tags and a halter.
You are responsible for transporting the calf and once the calf leaves the farm it is your responsibility.
If the calf needs to stay beyond the agreed upon pick up date a daily charge of $10/per calf per day will apply for feeding, housing and care.
Please do thorough research before bringing cattle onto your property, as this is not an exhaustive list of their care requirements. Before purchasing cattle, make sure you understand the ongoing costs, time commitment, handling requirements and local regulations involved in keeping them safely and responsibly.
As a general guideline, you should plan for approximately one acre of pasture per cow, and potentially more if you intend to use rotational grazing. The amount of land required will also depend on pasture quality, climate, herd size and how much supplemental feed is provided.
You will also need access to a veterinarian and an experienced hoof trimmer. In addition to emergency care, cattle generally require routine health checks, annual vaccinations and regular hoof care. Depending on their condition and environment, they may also need deworming or treatment for lice and other external parasites.
Mini cattle are a big investment but you should never just have one. Herd animals require other animals like them for safety, well-being, socialization and comfort. Your pet dog doesn’t count as a companion animal for a cow.
