istory
The miniature Highland cattle breed originates from the Gaelic region of Scotland known as the Highlands. This mountainous region was inhabited as early as the 14th century by the Scottish settlers who wanted to move out of the “crowded” lowlands area. The primary challenge for these settlers was to survive in the harsh climate. The Scotts, being a resilient and determined clan, found ways to make life in the mountains comfortable.
Necessity is the mother of invention, and the Scottish Highland cattle breed is the product of a dire necessity. The homesteads in the mountain regions were relatively small, mostly restricted by the geography. The families were unable to feed or sustain a large herd of cattle. They found themselves looking for a cattle breed that would be able to survive the harsh winters, provide calcium & protein rich milk, and offer tasty lean meat. Through centuries of selective breeding the Scottish Highland cattle breed was developed. These cows continue to meet all the criteria for which they were originally bred.

Most of the Highland mountain farmers didn’t have the means or space to build barns and shelters for their cows. They would bring their cow(s) into the house during the winter to generate heat for the family and to keep the cow safe from predators or thieves. Of course, it was crucial that their cattle had docile and friendly personalities with these living arrangements. We are able to enjoy the benefits of those years of selective breeding. The Highland cattle on Cyrus Ridge Farm are selected, bred, and trained to be friendly and docile with their owner. Mini highland cow for sale, Buy mini highlander cows.
