We are thrilled to be starting a herd of rare breed cattle.  They arrived in early June. This pedigree breed, the Whitebred Shorthorn, originally a local breed, is often used to cross with Highland or Galloway Cattle to  breed a successful beef cow. We hope to keep this herd pure bred with the intention of having a "Cragend" herd.
