We have some Shetland cattle for sale - having started with 4 heifers in 2008, after a few visits from the bull, now we have 36 beasts.
After much thought, we have selected some of our breeding females and are offering them for sale.
We have a range of ages to choose from -a couple of 7 year old cows - very experienced, good mothers, a 4 year old and a 3 year old - placid cows. These cows are all black and white and may be available with a 2014 steer calf.
We have a 2012 grey cow with her first calf born this year - a heifer.
Also available are 2 heifers from 2013. These and the cows mentioned above are in calf to Balearn Tavish.
Any combination of the above would make a good foundation for a new Shetland herd.
We're based in Moray, NE Scotland. Please ask for more info if required and pm if you would like to come and view.
