They get brushed several times per week. They even have their own brushes on posts throughout their fields.

@@seanforney24 Oh how nice. They were just looking a little shaggy. I know they must love to be brushed. There is the one guy who posts videos on his highland cows, he has that one super huge cow, that has the biggest cow head ever, and huge horns - well the cow appears to love to be petted and brushed and sometimes he lays that huge head in the guys lap, like a kitten or puppy. Who knew cows were so emotional. My brother in law has some cows and bulls, one time I was over and he had 3 baby cows they were so cute and wanted to suckle on your fingers. One of the babies was friendly, one was shy. But highland cows, especially the small ones are super cute. I'm glad you are such good parents to all your animals!

They are very resilient cattle.

My neighbor has some very happy ones in Hawaii

They can handle very warm or cold climates.

Agreed they are super cute and seem like very friendly! Just keep in mind to get more than one cause they are social animals that need a herd

Me too I love the baby cows

We have them in five acre fields and we rotate the fields. Also supplementing with 2-3 square bales a day

We will do that this spring and blow dry them out. We brush them regularly. They are very hearty cattle so not common with medical issues.

We only have Mini’s, but I’d imagine they would be fine.

These gals are about a year in the video. They still had a little bit of growing to do.

@@seanforney24 Cool. Will you keep breeding them so each generation gets smaller and smaller? That you select the small ones for breeding and eat the big ones.

Follow our farm page, we will have some babies soon enough and you can follow the entire process start to finish.

They are great cattle!

Haha, no clue!

@Sean Forney so a pony is a mini horse...but this is a cow...so it's like a pony version of a cow

@@imwaytogoodlookingtobeyour1188 interesting analogy…. But yes. They are bred small, a couple of ours carry the Chondro Gene. They should kick out some smaller calves. All about the genetics.

Well, it’s not a niche for everyone. We actively farm our property and wanted to add cows. We love these little cows and you’d be surprised how many people have them as pets. There is a reason highland pictures are in every store.

You’re not correct, miniatures are determined by their height. There is nothing malnourished about our MINIature Highland Cattle 👌😂🤙💪

@@seanforney24 no I’m correct.

@@richlangdon770 sure thing boss.

@@richlangdon770 if you just do a quick Google search it will enlighten you. The size chart is what determines that. Our Vet will give our Miniatures a clean bill of health everyday of the week.

@@seanforney24 think what you want. There is no miniature pure highlands. They breed with a true miniature cow.
