OUTSTANDING HIGHLAND BULLS
Semen from Outstanding Highland Bulls
Available from Elm Hollow’s Collection
All semen offered for sale by Elm Hollow Farm comes from bulls that have been tested and are negative for nt821.
Elm Hollow Farm first began to offer the sale of semen in July of 2019 with the purchase of BR Voodoo Magic AHCA #51522
We had not planned to carry a semen inventory, but the straws were already collected and were included in the purchase of this outstanding bull so we began to learn about the process of collection, storage, and sale of the semen of great bulls.

Bulls from Other Farms
In the fall of 2020, I was contacted by a well-known international judge of Highland cattle who extended to me an opportunity purchase his entire inventory of semen from bulls that he considered to be the most outstanding examples of the breed. We have never regretted that purchase.
Because some of these bulls have been out of circulation for some time, I have compiled as much information as I was able to find on each, including their genetic background as taken from herd books where they are recorded. A couple are also recorded in the Canadian herd book and one in Scotland.
These Outstanding Bulls are a bit more limited in our inventory so their pricing is slightly higher.
