Our Little Acres Specializes in miniature HighPark cows,
featuring Miniature Highland cross cows.
What is a miniature HighPark? In short, a Miniature HighPark cow is a small,
hairy cow that is white with black, dun, silver dun, red, yellow, white, and brindle points.
Basically any color a Highland can come in, although I would avoid
silver dun and white as you will get a sold white looking cow at maturity.
What are points? Points are the nose, ears, eyes and feet of our AdoraBull mini cows.
Our Little Acres coined the word HighPark in 2014.

Why miniature cows?
- Mini cows are small and easier to handle than standard sized cows.
- Mini cows eat less, 1/2 to 1/3 less.
- Mini cows are affectionate, some enjoy being brushed and petted.
- Mini cows can be transported in a small 2 horse trailer.
- Mini cows are great for volunteer work.
- Mini cows are wonderful for small acreage owners.
- Mini cows can pay for themselves when you have calves for sale.
Bulls are not pets, we love our bulls, we brush and pet them, but never turn our backs to them.
They have to respect us as "Herd Boss" but we also respect that they are animals and can be dangerous.
