Cabin Creek Mini Farm

Cabin Creek Mini Farm is a Scottish Highland cattle breeder in Buckhannon, WV, Upshur County and the Appalachian highlands near Morgantown. Perry Gains has cared for small herds for over a decade, participating in regional fairs and maintaining registrations with recognized livestock associations to ensure breed standards. The cattle enjoy rotational grazing on mixed pastures enriched with native grasses, and regular veterinary screenings support overall herd health.

Young calves are handled from birth to encourage calm temperaments and gradual socialization that fosters trust with their keepers. They live in sturdy shelters with straw bedding, and feeding routines include supplemental hay and minerals during colder months. As a family-run operation on a restored homestead, the farm celebrates heritage traits and shares seasonal insights through occasional open days for local visitors. Recent feedback highlights the gentle nature of their Highland cattle and appreciation for the farm’s hands-on approach to animal well-being.
