Welcome to Montana Mini Cattle

We raise and breed exceptional quality pet livestock.
Our registered miniature cattle range in height from 37-43" and all are at least 95% Scottish Highland, including our chondro positive and highpark colored bulls. This higher percentage gives our calves the desired appearance, conformation, and temperament of the highly popular Scottish Highlands.

We also just recently announced the purchase of our first purebred Valais Blacknose Sheep. We’ve acquired some of the best genetics in the world to begin our breeding program and plan to have our first available lambs in spring 2027! Check back for more updates on Montana Valais!

We're located in the beautiful Bitterroot Valley of West Central Montana. Whether you're looking for quality breeding stock or gorgeous pets to grace your pastures, we look forward to helping you.

Our Mini Breeding Bulls

White Chondro Positive Miniature Highland Bull

Ghostface Gunner

Gunner is a compact little 38 inch bull. The chondro gene means that he's a dexter/highland cross because Highlands don't naturally carry the dwarf chondro gene. In Gunner's case, this cross took place several generations back, with each subsequent offspring being bred back to a full highland. The result is a true unicorn of bulls. He's small, fluffy, well proportioned, and near 100% highland. He's about as gentle as they come too, a trait that's consistently passing on to his offspring.

Miniature Dun Tipped Highpark Bull

Frozen Tundra

Frozen Tundra is one awesome little bull. Way back in his genetics, was the white park that gave him that distinctive color; white body and dun tipped ears. Tundra is the result of four generations of this offspring being bred back to pure highlands. He's more than 95% highland and were it not for his coloring, he would simply be called a highland. Tundra has a gorgeous long thick winter coat that he passes on to all of his calves. He's non-chondro and has remained under 42” full grown.

Silver Chondo Positive Miniature Highland Bull

Mr. Boombastic

Boomer is our dream herdsire, retained this past year. He’s chondro positive and nearly a full blooded Highland from fourth generation breeding. His sire is our own 38” Ghostface Gunner, a 99% white chondro positive highland bull and his dam is Silver Shimmer, our gorgeous 41” silver highland cow. His unique coloring makes him extra special as he has a white splash on his head that resembles a heart. He was just 18” at birth and we expect his 3 yr height will be 37". We’re really excited to see what this little bull brings us in the future.

We have more "little" friends too..

Our first three Purebred Valais Blacknose Sheep join us this year. We’re incredibly excited to grow up this breeding program with top tier show quality bloodlines. Expect to see our first lambs arrive in early 2027. Mini donkeys, mini horses, and golden retrievers, also brighten our days here at the ranch. Our breeding trio of registered Mediterranean Donkeys, Arthur, Bailey and Jenny, were bred this past Fall for the first time. We are so excited to welcome mini donkey foals to the ranch this Fall! Look for those in late September!
