Meet Our Highland Herd

These are the registered Highlands who make up our small family herd in Northern Colorado. Each one brings a different personality to the pasture.

Mindy

  • Dun · Horned · Fullblood
  • Born April 9, 2024
  • Registration no. 68135

Mindy arrived with her close cousin Indy. Their dams are full sisters bred to the same bull, and they look so alike that we rely on Mindy’s fuller forelock and yellow ear tag to tell them apart. On August 23, 2026, Mindy welcomed her first calf, Big Bad Chad, a 78-pound bull calf sired by Big Chungus.

Looking Ahead

Jasmine, Whiskey, Indy, and Mindy were all bred to Big Chungus. Indy’s healthy silver heifer, Sugar, arrived on August 17, and Mindy welcomed her 78-pound bull calf, Big Bad Chad, on August 23.
