Scottish Highland cow(sold) and heifer (available)
(SOLD) 4 year old unregistered red-brindle cow.
DOB 4/25/2020
She was confirmed bred to our registered black highland bull by our vet on 3/5/2024. She is due to have a calf (the vet was pretty sure she is carrying a heifer calf) between 8/21-9/11/2024.
Full Disclosure - She had an early calf last year that did not make it. Because of this, I didn't feel like her uterus had 'cleaned' properly, so I did take her to the vet. They gave her 300 ProLA (which is an antibiotic shot), and Banamine (which is a pour-on anti-inflammatory). She recovered well from it, and is right on track for a calf this year. She has had no assistance needed or any trouble calving. Great motherly instincts.
(AVAILABLE) 2 year old unregistered red with a small amount of brindle heifer. $2,500
DOB 6/28/2022
She is exposed to our registered black highland bull. She is the 4 year old cow's first calf.
Both the cow and heifer:
-Have been strictly grass fed with occasional alfalfa pellet treats since birth.
-Were both born on my property.
-Have never been given wormers or vaccinated, including bangs.
-Are not overly friendly, but definitely not aggressive. In the spring when they are shedding, they let me brush them.
-Were halter broke when they were young. Neither has had a halter on them from 1 year on.
-Exposed to pigs, horses, llamas, sheep, dogs, and cats. Very calm around other animals and never jumpy or aggressive.
-These cows have been rotationally grazed since they were born. They are very respectful of electric fences and are very used to people, as we walk amongst our fold daily.
