Mini Cattle Supply

After many years of wanting mini cows, this past fall I took the plunge! I had been searching websites for a few years and this fall my husband and I (if you want to know the real truth mostly me!) went to visit some different breeders of mini Jerseys. I grew up on a farm and have had horses all of my life but always have had a love for cows! Mini’s seemed like the perfect fit for our 10 acre farm

. Since I knew I could not raise something and then have it for dinner, and I did my research on different types of cows I decided Jerseys were the breed for me. I visited with quite a few breeders before finding the King of the Jersey breeders, Tim O’Donnell at Dexter Corner in Effingham, Illinois. I purchased two heifers and bull from Tim and we are having the time of our lives. We have enjoyed every minute since we brought them them home! Dunkin (our mini bull), Donut (our mini heiffer) and Daisy (mid size mini heiffer) have been the talk of the town and we have had many visitors this fall to see the gang. When this all started, my husband Dan, was there to support me but honestly, I am beginning to think he has found his true calling. He is great with the cows! You might be thinking why mini cow halters? Well, I have owned my own horse tack business since 2000 and was having trouble finding halters to fit the new members of our farm. My knowledge and resources to make halters along with a need to fit mini’s seemed to be a great fit. so here we are with minicattlesupply.com I welcome you to contact me with stories about your cows and feedback on any of our products.
