About our Sale Cattle
All our Highland cattle for sale will be registered with the
American Highland Cattle Association (AHCA). We have been members
since 2003 and routinely register all our breeding Highland cattle
with AHCA.
When you purchase registered Highland cattle from us we will
complete all the tranfer requirements to the you the buyer and
ensure you receive the registrations in your name.
If you are interested in animals we have for sale feel free to contact us using any of the contact information at the bottom of the page. Normal procedure is that all sale cattle will be health checked by a vet before any animal is transported, ensuring health requirements for whatever region they are going to are met. Breeding age bulls are fertility checked.
You may find our cattle for sale in some sales. We usually try to support the Heartland Highland Sales held in Springfield MO in the spring and the fall.
We have a small effort cross breeding Highland with British White
cows. There are some intriguing calves from this crossing and those
also will occasionally come up for sale.
Feel free to
contact us even if
there are no animals on the page, we might just not have gotten them
up here yet.

Bull - J Bar T's Ludovic ( AHCA #65250 )
DOB: 06/20/2022
Ludovic is a coming on 2 year old herd bull prospect out of unique outcross bloodlines.
On the sire side is Caledonia’s Calling Heritage (AHCA 57379) a conformationally balanced dun bull through the Scottish bull Calum Seoladair Dubh 2nd of Killochries ( AHCA 52320 ) and Canadian dam Zweetheart of Pollock Heritage ( CA 15968 ). This bloodline also includes legendary American northwest bull genetics Raindancer and Kight of Five Star and heritage Canadian breeding.
On the dam side is J Bar T's Laci ( AHCA 54454 ) a classicly structured black Highland cow through HSC Steel Reserve and RTH Xena both with stellar show careers at local and the national levels. She brings Trafalgar, Summit Ranch, Kiyiwana, and EZ Acres to the table with an AHCA impact sire and dam represented in the three generation pedigree.
Ludovic is a rugged bull, strong and muscular. Very long in terms of his silouhette and strong in terms of his topline, extremley wide across the pins, heavily muscled and stout in terms of his bone and foot size. His head is short and wide, classic in Highland appearance.
His conformation is structurally correct and he is classic in terms of size with regard to a Highland bull.
He is not going to be a huge American Highland show bull but most likely based on his sire and dam will be moderate in size, probably mature around 1700 lb.
His show career started in August 2023, winning his division at the Esconaba State Fair in Michigan, an AHCA super point show. He was third in class at the Corn Husker Classic in York and was Reserve Grand Champion at both the North American Internation Livestock Exposition and Cattlemen's Congress Highland shows.
Both sire and dam contribute heritage Highland characteristics into this fine herd bull prospect. Ludovic is a reflection of our current breeding strategy, developing more classicly styled Highland animals. He demonstrated he can be competitive in any show arena at any level or could fit nicely into any fold as herd bull for for beef or show cattle breeding programs.
