Magic was carefully bred to produce black and red calves with sound feet, tight udders, and gentle temperament. Magic’s semen per straw pricing is $70 with the following discounts available….
6-10 straws – 5% discount
11-25 straws – 10% discount

Magic exhibits all of the important traits of the Scottish Highland Cattle Standard. Magic’s excellently level top line combined with his strong muscular neck, broad short head, low wide horn set, and bushy forelock compliment a thick, slightly wavy coat.
We are truly grateful to Bill and Kae Arrington of Big Ridge Highlands for their contributions to the breed, and most especially for working through generations to produce this magnificent bull.
We have learned much from the Arringtons, and been greatly inspired to carry on this legacy of excellence here at Elm Hollow Farm.

Heather was the first Fergus calf born at Elm Hollow Farm. Dam is Big Ridge Dubh Darcy.
