What do Highland eat?
Highland cows are natural grazers with big appetites for simple, wholesome food. Their diet is one of the many things that make them so hardy and low-maintenance — they thrive on what the land provides.
To stay balanced, they’re given access to salt licks or mineral tubs — just what they need to get important nutrients that might not be in their forage.
Like many animals, Highland cows enjoy the occasional treat! They love carrots, apples, or a handful of grain cubes now and then — always in moderation and always safe for cattle.
What are the colors of Highland Cattle?
There are 7 official colors. Red, Black, Yellow, White, Brindle, Dun, and Silver Dun.
What is Highland Cattle’s temperament?
Highland cattle are known for their calm and docile temperament. They are generally friendly and easy to handle, making them a popular choice for small farms and homesteads. These cattle tend to be more independent and less reactive compared to other breeds, which makes them well-suited for grazing and living in less intensive environments.
