Highland Calves For Sale

Yes, of course!

We actually insist that anyone buying from us must have met us and seen the cattle before we will accept any deposit. We certainly prefer in person visits, but can also organise video calls if distance is an issue (eg interstate buyers).

Yes, we offer delivery in our own horse float or cattle truck, which we regularly use to transport our own show cattle. Just chat to us.

We keep calves with their dams (mum cow) until they are ready to be weaned at around 6-8 months old. This is the best and healthiest way for calves to grow up.

We start taking deposits on calves from when they are a couple of months old - sign up to our mailing list to be one of the first to find out!

After weaning, the calves spend another few weeks here with us for extensive handling & to finish their formal training. This is to ensure they are happy, friendly, quiet, calm and confident with people before they leave for their new homes. All our calves are also halter trained.

We do not sell bottle babies, poddies or unweaned calves as this is not in the best interest of the animal.

Our Highlands are quite small, but they are not bred to be miniature - there are many other important traits that we breed for.

Our mature cows are around 115-120cm tall. They are definitely a lot shorter than standard beef cattle breeds, and most of ours are on the small side for purebred Scottish Highlands. However we do not breed for size, instead we aim to breed for great temperaments and conformation. Miniatures are often bred for small size at the expense of other traits like structural soundness, or sometimes stunted by purposeful underfeeding at critical growth periods. Instead, our calves are healthy, happy and quiet pets - welfare is our first priority.

Purebred Scottish Highlands are a heritage breed. Our stud cows have traditional bloodlines and pedigrees that can be traced back to Scotland! As a smaller sized breed, they are ideal for acreages and hobby farms.

Our steer calves are priced around $5,000 each. Steers make ideal pets.

Our heifers are priced from $9,000-$15,000+, depending on many factors like pet or stud quality, structure, bloodlines, registration, and temperament.

Please keep in mind these prices include our extensive handling program, and halter training. Our calves are friendly and confident with people and make ideal paddock pets - they can be hand fed, brushed, patted, walked on the lead, etc. We spend a huge amount of time producing our calves, which is reflected in the price. They also come with their halter + lead, brush, and printed baby diary.

All our calves come NLIS tagged, with an NVD, up to date with drenching and fully vaccinated (7-in-1).
