Narcissa is a pretty little registered highland heifer, I have her mama who is a bit smaller than the other cows I own and I can see that in Narcissa so she is just slightly on the smaller size and that is why I am choosing to sell. Don't let that deter you if you don't mind smaller thick frames! Her face is just stunning. Love the white around her nose. She has potential to throw beautiful colors with her mama being white. She was petable in the winter but I didn’t spend much time with her this summer so she’s shy again. She’d come around fast with some love! She has beautiful feet like her mama and I am certain she will also develop a beautiful udder like her mama too.
Her sire is from the royal family’s Balmoral Fold bloodline! I paid $7000 for her last fall from Norland Brae's dispersal so I felt for $9000 after a year of growing was fair. Anything less is not worth it to me to sell as she is a lovely girl I just wanted to put her out there if she catches anyone's eye!
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!!!

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.
