Pancakes -was the last highland born so she is a month behind in size compared to my others but she is really starting to fill out. Her dam Honey is unregistered but a very special girl to me - one of the first highland purchases of mine and she has become more than just a cow, a real bestie of mine.  If Pancakes is anything like her mama she'll be gentle as could be. She is quite the beautiful young lady. A little on the shy side only because being last born she went straight out to pasture and I didn't get as many scratches in as the others in early spring but she'd come around fast with some attention. She has great depth, mama has great feet and udder so I assume Pancakes will follow! 

 

NOTE: I am travelling to Prince Albert Saskatchewan early Nov and can deliver calves on the way anywhere from Calgary to that area for free!!! 

 

For pickup, If you are unhappy with her before leaving you will be reimburse. CHOOSE LOCAL PICKUP to avoid any shipping costs 

 

Buyers - I am only wanting to sell to people familiar with cattle already, or ready to dive in but completely set up to handle livestock.

Reminder - highlands are NOT mini, that is not a real thing. They will grow to be around 1100 lbs (females) and can be difficult to work with since they love to use their horns once they figure out how...

 

Things to consider: are you prepared to restrain if injured meaning do you have a chute or a good way to hold a 1100lb animal?

 

Cattle are herd animals so they need at least one bovine friend. Do you have or are planning on getting another this fall?

 

Do you have or can you have a relationship with a large animal vet?

 

Have you done your research on this breed? - something important to consider is unlike commercial beef cows, highland heifers MUST be two years old to breed - delivering their first calf at 3 or just over 3. They develop slower than commercial cattle being a heritage breed. If bred too soon a bull can severely injure them internally/crush them and or delivering at 2 instead of 3 can stunt their growth and tons of data showing re breeding after delivering at 2 is difficult.

 

Have you done your research on hay and pasture? Are you familiar with mineral needs, alfalfa risks, grain risks, how much land you'll need or hay you'll need. Are you set up with a trusting winter water supply?

 

You may want to consider quarantining before introducing to other animals - this is typical farm protocol.

 

 

All important things to consider if you are new to cattle.
