Bent Oak Highland Ranch

Bent Oak Highland Ranch, Scottish Highland cattle in South Burnet, TX, is nestled in the Texas Hill Country near Austin. Lois Lambert has raised Scottish Highland cattle for over a decade and follows breed standards recognized by national cattle associations.

As a family-owned operation, animals graze on open pasture with seasonal rotational grazing to support soil health, and all receive regular health screenings, vaccinations and daily social interaction. The ranch uses natural forage supplemented by hay harvested on site to ensure consistent nutrition throughout the year. Loosely fenced pastures and shaded loafing areas give cattle space to roam and shelter during hot summer days.

Visitors often comment on the clear health records and transparent breeding goals, noting calm temperaments in both calves and mature cows. Covered loafing barns and abundant shade trees offer comfort throughout seasons. The ranch combines sustainable land management with hands-on care for a balanced herd.
