Mountain Home Zebus

Mountain Home Zebus, a provider of miniature zebu, operates in the US Midwest near Chicago.

Tim Moore has focused on breeding these compact cattle for several years and maintains affiliation with national zebu associations while following health-screening recommendations. Calves are reared on open pasture with daily handling to nurture a calm disposition, and adult cattle rotate through pasture systems while having access to shelter in a well-kept barn.

The operation prioritizes natural grazing cycles and rotational pasture management to promote soil health and biodiversity. Tim Moore keeps detailed records of growth rates and fertility outcomes to support ongoing breed improvement. The herd’s gentle temperament and small size make these cattle well suited to family farms and hobby ranches. Mountain Home Zebus also offers guidance on feeding practices and herd management to support new owners in establishing their own sustainable livestock program.
