Pazenski Farms

Pazenski Farms, Scottish highland cattle, Millington, MI, in Mid-Michigan near Saginaw. Nathan and Nicole Ptaszenski have been raising Scottish highland cattle for over a decade, participating in the American Highland Cattle Association and following thorough health screening for every herd member. The animals graze on rotational pasture to support soil health and natural foraging.

Calves share the family environment from a young age, growing alongside dogs and children to encourage calm handling. Breeding decisions emphasize horn conformation and hardiness that stand up to cold winters. Animals are housed in a spacious barn equipped with insulated stalls and heated water troughs during winter. Weaning is managed on site through gradual separation, which supports steady growth and minimizes stress. Recent feedback highlights the gentle temperament and adaptability of the stock, reflecting the farm’s focus on balanced genetics and well-being.
