Welcome to Scotchwood Farm

Breeders of quality FIB Highland cattle

At Scotchwood Farm, our passion is preserving and improving the iconic Highland breed through carefully selected genetics, ethical breeding practices, and a deep respect for the history of these magnificent cattle.

Nestled in the heart of Western Australia, our fold of 20 Highland cattle represents years of dedication, research, and a clear vision for the future of the breed. Every animal at Scotchwood Highlands has been thoughtfully selected for temperament, structure, breed character, and pedigree, with a strong focus on maintaining and advancing Full Imported bloodlines.

Our Breeding Philosophy

We are committed to breeding Highland cattle of exceptional quality using some of the finest genetics from Scotland, The United States and Australia.

By combining proven international bloodlines with careful breeding selection, we strive to produce Highlands that honour the traditional Scottish breed standard while continuing to improve with each generation.

Our Vision

Our vision is not simply to breed Highland cattle. It is to contribute meaningfully to the future of breed, with Scotchwood genetics recognised and utilised worldwide.

We are building a breeding program founded on quality rather than quantity, with careful long-term planning and a commitment to continual improvement. Every calf born at Scotchwood Highlands represents another step toward that vision.

Whether you are discovering Highland cattle for the first time or are a lifelong enthusiast, we are proud to share our fold and our journey with you.

Located in Benjinup, WA, Scotchwood Farm began as a passion project. What started with a few pet Highland cows, miniature goats, and chickens quickly grew into something more. We fell in love with these incredible animals and the lifestyle they brought.

We made the decision to grow Scotchwood Farm into a business, so we could share the joyful experience of well-socialised, trusting animals. Our Highland cattle and goats, are not just livestock, but cherished members of the family.

WHY CHOOSE US?

We are dedicated ethical breeders, deeply committed to the lifelong welfare of our animals and to providing ongoing support to their new owners.

Our focus extends beyond breeding; we offer continuous education and training designed to empower you to interact confidently with your animals. Our breeding program emphasises early socialisation and training, ensuring that you can cultivate a rewarding, lifelong relationship with your pet cow or goat.

While structure, conformation, and breed characteristics are certainly important, we place the highest priority on temperament. After all, a beautiful animal is of little value if it cannot be approached or engaged with.
