What good does it do to have a nice herd of miniature cattle if you don't have a great bull. We are always on the lookout for a small bull. While size is important, we also would like to have conformation and disposition in there too. Splash on some color and you have it made.
Simple and easy....RIGHT!? Not hardly. It seems like it is getting harder to find bulls we like better than the ones we already have. I know they are out there, everyone just hangs on to the good bulls.
2017 Breeding Bulls
Since we are trying to raise the smallest and healthiest miniature cattle, we are always looking for small bulls. If we can't find them, we raise them. These home-grown bulls will each get a nice group of cows for the 2017 breeding season. We can hardly wait to see what happens.

Ted is a 2013 bull. We have high hopes for his calves. He is bred to some of our best cows and we can hardly wait. He was 34 inches tall at 3 yrs old. 35 inches as a 4 yr old. He is built almost perfect. He has a great tail, nice head, just nice all the way around. He is out of one of our best cow lines. He had some great calves in 2017, bred to another nice group of cows for 2018. About half the cows are the same, half are new for him.
Bullfrog, is turning into a good one. Out of Pepper by Sugar Cain, he has brindle with lots of black. He is in with 10 of our best cows so we can't wait to see what he does. He Measure 33.5 shortly before his 3rd birthday.We would like to see him fill out a little more and think he will next summer. Born July 23, 2014. 20 inches/22lbs.
Hurricane, out of a great young cow, Katrina by Rascal, a 29 inch bull. He not only got lots of milk from his morther, but also sneeking some from his grand-mother. He was a little butter ball as a calf. He is 36 inches shortly before his 3rd birthday. He is in with 5 cows for 2018. Born July 7, 2014. 21 inches/22lbs.
Caesar is a nice colorful 2 yr old. He was 36.5 just before his second birthday. He has a great frame, color and disposition. We like the line-back look. We hope he passes that on. He is in with 5 cows for 2018.
