Pricing for Mini JerseysPricing for Mini Highland & HighParkPricing for Mini Highland & HighParkPricing on miniature Jersey Heifers and Cows will depend on the several factors. We cannot predict the outcome of the breeding before we see the calf. Here are some hypothetical examples: True little mini Jersey A1A1 can start as low as $5,000 up to $7,000 An A1A2 mini $5,500 to $8,000. An A2A2 mini with some or few flaws: $5,500 to $10,000. An A2A2 mini with great specs: $7,000 to even $12,000. Midsize A1A1 50% -to 100% Miniature Jersey starts at $3,500 Bull calves are priced based on the same assumptions, with price ranges from $1,500 to $5,000 The additional factors that go into determining the price are: Polled/horned, bred/open, disposition, milking experience, age, breeding and calving history, other health history, confirmation, udder etc... Miniature cattle, particularly miniature highland cattle are in high demand. It takes years of breeding to carefully reduce size whilst keeping good conformation. We carefully select for temperament and take time to train the calves. This effort and commitment is reflected in the sale price.

Available Highland Cattle Darcy’s Magic LadyThis girl is very special to us at Elm Hollow Farm. She is our first linebred heifer. This wasn’t planned, but the results are just delightful. When we moved all our bred cows to one pasture with BR Voodoo Magic in for “clean up” duty, we were sure that all of his daughters had already been settled by other bulls. It seems that was not the case. Very late in the season, on January 23, 2022, Darcy presented us with this beautiful baby. I fell in love with Lady that very day. As I watched her grow, I realized that she had inherited a package of almost perfect conformation qualities, which is one of the goals of line breeding, and it has made me want to try line breeding again! She is the full package and sassy to boot. When we first pulled Lady for weaning and halter training, she was a real spitfire! She will be fully trained to stand and lead before she leaves for your farm. Lady is available with an opening bid of $4,500. Click the button for more information about Lady, her lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Lady sold for $7000.
KarismaKarisma earned her name as a very young calf. She seemed to long for a runway to strut down so she could nod her head to the thunderous appaluse of her adoring fans. Born on December 9, 2021, this little girl immediately took over as the sweetheart of the pasture. I loved her tiny white spot that appeared on her right hip. It was a fashion statement for sure, and hopefully a hint that she will finish much lighter than she appeared as a very young calf. Already, lighter areas have formed around her eyes and around her nose. There is a possibility that she will finish silver. Karisma boasts some well-known genetics in her background, including MacDonald of Esk, Sunset Rebel Yell, Muirneag of Vintage Hill, and Urras Achnacloich of Scotland. Just look at that perfect top line, her correct leg angles, her deep body and know that this one could be a showstopper! Karisma is available with an opening bid of $5,500. Click the button for more information about Karisma, her lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Karisma sold for $6,900.
Knockout PunchKnockout was born on the first day of December 2021. His dam, CSF Honeysuckle, ACHA # 57529, was the beautiful blond that caused me to bid on a cow at the national show and sale, in spite of the fact that we had flown into Denver and had absolutely no way to get her home to Tennessee. She has given us some wonderful calves, and Knockout is one of them. Knockout was a looker by the time he was 4 months old and we really debated keeping him for our own, especially when we started working with him on the halter and discovered his gentle temperament. On graduation day from halter training, Knockout seemed to be strutting around trying to impress the other calves with his prowess. He even tried his bull voice when he went back out to join the other calves!! At 8 months, he seems to be cozying up to the girls and mimicking his sire’s twitchy nose face. He thinks it is time already! Knockout Punch is available with an opening bid of $3,500. Click the button for more information about Knockout, his lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Knockout sold for $3,500.
KatherineKatherine was born on December 21, 2021, to LEA Nocturne, AHCA # 56653, one of our most beautiful, correct, and gentle tempered cows. Katherine copies her mother in conformation, temperament, and color. Katherine is one of those heifers that makes it very hard to even consider parting with her. From the first day of halter training, Katherine has been easy to work with. She never was one to kick or be skittish, but welcomed the human touch from the start. Katherine inherited the best from both her beautiful dam, LEA Nocturne, and her handsome sire, our Big Ridge Voodoo Magic, AHCA # 51522. I love the results of this combination and these two will remain a couple for years to come! Katherine is available with an opening bid of $5,500. Click the button for more information about Katherine, herlineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Katherine sold for $11,200.
KassidyKassidy was born on November 1, 2021, to WKA Annie Get Your Gun, AHCA # 56824. She is spunky and that beautiful deep red that brings to mind pictures of the Scottish Highlands. This pretty heifer has a deep red coat with light frosting down her neck and back. She gets prettier every day. Yesterday (June 28, 2022) she decided to strike a pose for me, which is the photo on the right. Kassidy’s sire, Big Ridge Fergus, AHCA # 57487, was also sired by a bull that is a direct Scottish import. If you want true Scottish genetics, you’ll find them here. Kassidy has the depth of body we all look for in a heifer and she just gets better as she grows! Kassidy is available with an opening bid of $4,000. Click the button for more information about Kassidy, her lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Kassidy sold for $5,700.
Kallie’s LassKallie’s Lass was born on November 11, 2021, to one of our veteran coos. Big Ridge Callie, AHCA # 54244, seems to always produce a very social baby that likes to wander the pasture greeting all the other cows and calves. Temperament means a lot when dealing with your fold and Callie passes on a very gentle nature to her babies. Lass is no exception. Lass’s Sire, BR Voodoo Magic, AHCA # 51522, passed along his length and depth to his daughter. A tiny girl at birth, Lass has gained quickly and grown into a heifer we are very proud of. Her mature size will be on the smaller size of medium framed. You can almost hear the bagpipes playing when you look at this gal. She has that beautiful rich red coat that dots the Scottish hillsides. Kallie’s Lass is available with a $4,200 opening bid. Click the button for more information about Kallie’s Lass, her lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Kallie’s Lass sold for $5,400.
KlondikeKlondike is my pick of the bulls that I wanted to keep this year, but sometimes we have to realize that just because he is my favorite calf of all times, we really don’t need four bulls at Elm Hollow. So it is with deep regret that I’m offering Klondike for sale. Klondike’s dam is JHN Denali, AHCA # 48293. She is a beautiful girl and has produced an outstanding calf every time for us. Klondike was no exception. Klondike has been my snuggle buddy at the end of halter class since day five. I was thrilled to have a calf that young display such complete trust in his human. It will be hard to let this boy go. What a personality! Klondike’s sire is BR Voodoo Magic, AHCA # 51522. Since your bull is 50% of the genetics of every calf you produce, you want those genetics to be outstanding and you won’t go wrong with this young bull. Klondike is available with a $3,000 opening bid. Click the button for more information about Klondike, his lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Klondike sold for $3,500.
KadeKade will bring color to your fold. His dam, Windemere Dare, AHCA # 55236, is silver and his sire is dun, which gives great variety to his color genetics. Temperament is excellent from both sire and dam making Kade very easy to work with as we practiced with the halter. Kade was another top contender for our keeper bull this year. He is an excellent example of correct Highland conformation and very gentle temperament. The only reason we didn’t choose Kade as our keeper this year is that his sire, Big Ridge Fergus, AHCA # 57487, is still young and will not need to be replaced this year. It’s always difficult to try to predict the mature color of a Highland calf; I keep wavering between red and yellow with Kade. It seems to depend on how bright the sun is. When my vet met this boy, he said, “You’ll be keeping this one, right? He’s so sturdy and his top line is perfect.” I wish I could keep them all. With your bull providing half the genetics for each calf you produce, you want those genetics to be outstanding and you won’t go wrong with this young bull. Kade is available with a $3,500 opening bid. Click the button for more information about Kade, his lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Kade sold for $5,500.
KellyKelly is turning out to be our sweetest steer so far. We found no flaws in Kelly, but compared to the other bull calves this year, he didn’t gain quite as fast, so we elected to band him and produce a beautiful little steer. Kelly was born November 15, 2021. His dam PHF Chocolate Pudding, AHCA # 58165, is one of our most docile cows and her easy temperament shows in Kelly’s personality. Kelly’s sire is Big Ridge Fergus, AHCA # 57487. Kelly will be a great companion to a heifer, bull, or another steer. He has many calf friends in the pasture. He grazes calmly with the heifers and tends to avoid the rough house play with the boys. Kelly is so easy going that he could be that cuddle coo you can nap with in the pasture or the barn. Kelly is available with a $2,000 opening bid. He can be registered at buyer’s request for $100. Click the button for more information about Kelly, his lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Kelly sold for $2,800.
Kandy GirlKandy was born on October 28, 2021. She was a beauty from the start. Her length and depth are outstanding for a calf her age. By four months old, Kandy had all the characteristics of an outstanding cow. She would be my keeper if I was keeping any heifer this year and I’ll probably regret letting her go. Her dam, Ban Diuc of Legacy, AHCA # 56155, is a stunning cow whose sire was imported to the US from Scotland. Kandy’s sire, Big Ridge Fergus AHCA # 57487, was also sired by a bull that is a direct Scottish import. If you want true Scottish genetics, this is definitely your girl. I know my opening bid is higher than usual on Kandy, but her value such that it would not break my heart to keep her. Kandy is available with a $5,500 opening bid. Click the button for more information about Kandy, her lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Kandy Girl sold for $8,100.
King of the HillElm Hollow’s King of the Hill is a seven-and-a-half-month-old bull calf. We knew from the start that it was going to be a hard call on which of Magic’s bull calves to retain for our own use this year. This boy was one of the top contenders. The reason we decided on a different calf had nothing to do with conformation or development, but only the lamest of reasons, color. He is in all other ways equal to the bull calf we are keeping as a potential replacement for his sire as Magic’s retirement age approaches. You can see the length and depth of both sire and dam in this beautiful little bull. Since half of the genetics of every calf produced on your farm comes from the sire, you really need to choose carefully and this would be an excellent choice! King is available with a $3,500 opening bid. Click the button for more information about King, his lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: King sold for $3,850.
KodiakElm Hollow’s Kodiak is a seven-month-old steer calf who is growing into a handsome boy. I always recommend that if you want a pet, choose a steer. Kodiak has many calf friends in the pasture. We see him grazing calmly with a group of heifers, play fighting with the bull calves, and he loves to run with younger calves. He’ll make a terrific companion for any lonely calf in your fold and I bet that if you’ve ever had a crazy desire to train a Highland to pull a cart or wanted to try your hand at riding a coo, he might be up for that! Kodiak is available for an opening bid of $2,000. Click the button for more information about Kodiak, his lineage, and more pictures. Update: Kodiak sold for $2,500.
KamilaElm Hollow’s Kamila, AHCA # 63379, is a seven-month-old heifer calf who will be a wonderful brood cow for your herd and add some great color. The minute I saw her, I was very impressed with her straight top line and her rectangular body that has the depth needed for carring calves easily. At first, I thought Kamila was going to be a dark dun, but as she matures, she may be leaning toward black. Sometimes you just have wait and see! Her sire, Big Ridge Fergus AHCA # 57487 is as gentle and even tempered as her dam GAM Grace Suk (AKA TuTu), AHCA # 58654. TuTu is such a good-natured cow. Kamila is available for an opening bid of $4,000. Click the button for more information about Kamila, her lineage, and more pictures. Update: Kamila sold for $6,400.
KobeElm Hollow’s Kobe, AHCA #pending, is a six-month-old bull calf who was a top contender for our keeper bull this year. Kobe has been a joy to work with since he voluntarily began coming into halter training with the first class of calves. He is another excellent example of correct Highland conformation and very gentle temperament. The only reason we didn’t choose Kobe as our keeper is that his sire, Big Ridge Fergus, AHCA # 57487, is still young and doesn’t need to be replaced this year. With your bull providing half the genetics for each calf you produce, you want those genetics to be sound and Kobe’s are about as sound as you can get. Kobe is available with a minimum offer of $3,500. Click the button for more information about Kobe, his lineage, and more pictures. Update: Kobe sold for $3,400.
Jaunty LadElm Hollow’s Jaunty Lad, AHCA #61493, is a three-year-old bull who was our pick of the bull calves from 2020. His coat is long and straight, with an attractive dun color. After training from his sire, he has learned to be a proper bull and also proven himself a good sire. We will have some calves from him this fall! Jaunty Lad’s sire, BR Voodoo Magic has the length, depth, and balance you look for in a bull and he has passed that balance on to Jaunty Lad. This young bull will make a valuable and gentle herd sire. Jaunty Lad is available with a $3,000 minimum offer. Click the button for more information about Jaunty Lad, his lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Jaunty Lad sold for $3,400.
Cinnamon & Just HerbWhen GHF Cinnamon, a registered heifer, AHCA #60651, first came to Elm Hollow Farm, she became fast friends with Elm Hollow’s Just Herb. Herb is an unregistered steer, purebred from registered stock and recorded with the AHCA – #U13365. They have since moved on to a caring, loving home together, but the climate of Southern Alabama seems to be a little too hot and humid for them. The pair is available with a $5,000 minimum offer. Click the button for more information about Cinnamon & Herb, and their lineage, more pictures, or to make an offer. Update: Herb and Cinnamon have sold for $13,500.
