Highland Ranch Estate

Highland Ranch Estate breeds Scottish Highland cattle in Mounds, OK, in northeastern Oklahoma near Tulsa. Clay Powell has raised these hardy cattle for several years and maintains membership in the American Highland Cattle Association with routine health screening for hoof, respiratory, and genetic markers. Animals are selected for genetic strength and adaptability, with careful attention to maternal instincts and coat quality during winter months.

The herd grazes on rotational pastures of native grasslands and is sheltered in open‐air barns that allow natural behaviors and gentle handling from birth. Water troughs and natural shade are available throughout the pastures. The small herd size allows for personalized care and close observation of each animal’s growth and well-being.

Breeding and calving take place on the family farm, where calves receive early socialization to prepare them for herd dynamics. One local farmer mentions the cattle’s calm temperament and sturdy build that thrive in changing seasons.
