Highland cow + calf for sale. £700 for both.
These animals are really tame and well handled. They calved April/May, and have been running with the bull again.
They are the easiest of cattle to keep, live outside all year, and very easy calving.
Apparently their digestion is 30% more efficient than modern breeds, and certainly ours kept in good condition last winter on straw and carrots alone.
They will thrive on rough pasture but if kept on good grass will fatten as fast as any other British breed.
BUT most people keep a few because they look FANTASTIC grazing outside your window and really add a touch of class to your surroundings.
