All of these cattle are so easy to work with and have been gentled. They will eat out of your hand but are respectful and not pushy. They are used to children, dogs, cats, chickens, and goats. Some have been halter broken and lead trained. They would make a wonderful starter herd for a homesteader. Raise them for milk, beef, or pets.
Miniature zebu are heat resistant, disease resistant, have subdermal twitch to ward off flies, and are excellent foragers. They do a better job of keeping the grass mowed and fence lines clear than our goats did. They are low-maintenance. They can live on minimal acreage and they are reported to have A2/A2. Their meat is higher yield and lower fat than British breeds.

Mazas is a miniature zebu steer, born 3/20/24. He is friendly. Could be a pet or finished for beef now or when he’s completely mature at 3-years-old. $850
Hazel is a jerbu (zebu x jersey) heifer born 1/2024. Hazel is a sweet, gentle, beautiful heifer who is so easy going and friendly to work with and will do anything you want her to. She loves children. You can put your hands all over her and she doesn’t flinch. She would make an amazing family milk cow and not overload you with too much milk. That is what we planned to have her for. She has been halter broken and trained to lead. $2,000
Samson is a black and white miniature zebu bull born 5/24. He is chondro negative, tested BD1 negative. He is very small, comes up to my hip and I'm 5' 6". If you have miniature cattle, or want to have a family milk cow and don’t want to mess with AI or worry about a larger bull injuring someone, he would make a great herd addition. $1,200
