We raise Irish Dexter mini beef cattle. These cows are noted for their small size and gentle disposition. The average weight of an adult cow is about 650lbs and the bull is about 850-900lbs. Newborn calves are an average of 35lbs each. This compact and very sturdy breed does very well in the Maine climate and it's greatest asset is that it can easily be raised with a minimal amount of space. 

An adult cow will do well on three-quarters of an acre of good grazing pasture. In the winter we ration 3/4s of a bail of good quality hay .They do very well on just this small amount of feed. The minumume amount of shelter needed is an aduquit three sided shelter placed against the prevailing wind.We now have 3 spring heifers and 2 bulls for sale, Want to get one of thease unique animals to raise but lacking the fencing?
