Miniature cattle are great for small acreages. They can be anywhere to 1/2 or even 1/3 the size of standard cattle, so, therefore, require less feed and land. We encourage the ration of one miniature cow per ½ to 1-acre grass with good quality hay during the winter months.
Mini Scottish Highlands are a very hardy breed of cattle that can withstand harsh cold temperatures in the winter and hot temperatures in the summer with adequate shade and water. They tend to be docile and calm, especially the more you work with and handle them. They can make great outdoor companions, show cattle, or home-raised beef.
Our goal at Our Little Acres is to breed and sell, small, friendly, hairy Miniature Highland
and HighPak cows that maintain themselves on grass/hay alone.
Right now the height of our mini cows at the top of the hip is 43” down to a tiny 35” tall.
they are perfect for us and you might
also find them perfect for you.
