🐮 Who is Charlie?
Charlie is a miniature Highland cow with a calm and affectionate temperament. He’s not only stunning to look at—with his thick coat, expressive eyes, and traditional Highland horns—but he also has the personality to match his looks.
At Highland Heifers, we pride ourselves on raising our calves in a nurturing, hands-on environment from birth. That means Charlie has grown up used to being handled, fed, and cared for by people. The result? A well-socialised cow who enjoys human interaction and thrives on companionship.
🌿 What Makes Charlie Special?
Not all Highland cows are the same—and Charlie stands out even among his kind.
1. Miniature Size, Massive Appeal
Unlike standard Highland cows, Charlie is a true miniature. This makes him:
-
Easier to manage
-
Less demanding in terms of space and feed
-
Ideal for hobby farms, petting zoos, and families with land
Charlie’s compact stature doesn’t compromise his Highland charm—it only enhances it. His smaller size also makes him less intimidating and more approachable, especially for children or first-time livestock owners.
2. Gentle Nature
Charlie’s temperament is what truly sets him apart. He’s:
-
Calm and easygoing
-
Happy around humans and other animals
-
Easy to halter-train and groom
He loves attention but isn’t pushy. His laid-back attitude makes him a joy to have around and a perfect candidate for shows, therapy animal training, or simply as a loving farm companion.
3. Low Maintenance
Thanks to their hardy Scottish heritage, Highland cows like Charlie are naturally resistant to many common cattle issues. They are:
-
Suited for all weather types
-
Able to thrive on grass-based diets
-
Low-stress animals with minimal health problems
