Our Highland cattle
Krueger Family Farms is a Highland cattle operation in the Pacific Northwest. Since 2013, we have raised purebred Scottish Highlands on 20 acres with a focus on sound genetics, strong maternal lines, and practical, sustainable management.
Calves leave the farm with full registration papers and health records.

Questions Buyers Ask
Is every animal registered, and when do papers transfer?
All stock sold with AHCA registration papers and health records. Papers transfer once the final payment clears, usually within a week of pickup.
How much is a deposit and is it refundable?
A deposit is one quarter of the price and holds your animal. It is refundable if a calf fails its health check before pickup.
What do Highlands need for fencing, shelter and winter feed?
Sturdy fencing, a three-sided shelter against wind and good hay through winter. Highlands are hardy and need little more.
Can we see the dam and sire of a calf?
Always. The dam is in the fold, and we share photographs and papers for the sire.
How quickly will you reply to an email?
Inquiries answered within two business days. Busy calving weeks may stretch that slightly, never beyond.
Can you arrange transport, and how far do you deliver?
Yes. We can arrange a trusted hauler and deliver across neighbouring states. Distance sets the fee, and we quote it before you commit.
When can we visit the fold, and do you allow children?
Visits run on weekends by appointment. Children are welcome, and we ask that they stay with an adult near the animals.
Do you halter-train calves before pickup?
Yes. Every calf is handled daily and led on a halter before it leaves, so the move home is calm.
Do you sell to first-time cattle owners?
Gladly. We walk new owners through feed, fencing and health care, and answer questions after the sale.
