Why Miniature Cattle?
Miniature Cattle are great for farms and properties with low acreage, whether it be for locker beef in the commercial, natural, or organic production methods, or as pets and 4-H projects.

We have found that miniature cattle need approximately 1 acre of land per head. It is important to keep mud to a minimum, but even living in Washington, 'the wet state,' this is not an impossible task.
In the winter, we feed our cattle with locally-grown hay and haylage bales.
In the spring and summer, our cattle graze freely in our pastures.
