Circle S Ranch

Circle S Ranch, Scottish highland cattle, Enid, OK, in Garfield County and northern Oklahoma near Oklahoma City. It has been raising Scottish highland cattle for over a decade and is a member of the American Highland Cattle Association, with annual health screenings covering common genetic conditions. Calving pens are maintained to ensure close monitoring of newborns, and registered pedigree records are kept for every animal.

The herd grazes on rotating pastures enriched with native grasses, while shelters are provided to protect animals from extreme weather. On-site water troughs are strategically placed across pasture blocks, and trace mineral supplements are offered year-round to maintain optimal health. Zach Slater embraces low-stress handling and daily pasture walks to encourage sociability and reduce anxiety.

Consistent performance at the Oklahoma State Fair and regional gatherings has highlighted the ranch’s steady focus on conformation and herd temperament. This balance of tradition and practical husbandry supports healthy, adaptable cattle.
