Bluegrass Bottoms Cattle Company

Bluegrass Bottoms Cattle Company, Scottish Highland cattle, Ashland, KY, Boyd County and the Ohio Valley near Huntington. Alison Bays has been breeding Scottish Highland cattle for several years, holds membership in the American Highland Cattle Association, and follows industry-recommended health testing for genetic conditions. The herd thrives on rolling pastures with access to shelter through all seasons.

Animals are gently handled from a young age to promote calm temperaments and social comfort around families and visitors. The operation emphasizes grass-fed nutrition, rotational grazing, and attentive husbandry to support both animal welfare and quality of beef. During winter, cattle have access to a protected barn with straw bedding and heated water sources that are monitored daily. Routine hoof trims and parasite management help maintain herd health, while secure perimeter fencing supports safe grazing. Calves raised here often reflect consistent conformation and hardy health suited to local climates.
