HIGHLAND CATTLE HANDLING COURSE

Join us on our very hands-on course where we comprehensively cover every aspect of rearing your own Highland cattle (much will be applicable to other breeds too!). No sitting in a classroom as full digital notes accompany the course.

The course runs on our secluded holding on the Pembrokeshire/Carmarthenshire border (SA34). A hot lunch and refreshments are included.

25 years ago we bought our first highland cow and calf. We currently have 20 head of stock, breed and sell our own calves and market our own jointed beef.

The course covers:
Characteristics of the breed
When, where and how to acquire your stock
Registration, BCMS, passports and tags
Handling techniques and facilities
Bucket and halter training

Never be afraid to try something new; remember "amateurs built the Ark, professionals built the Titanic"
