Rusty Tinn Acres

Rusty Tinn Acres, Scottish highland cattle, Marceline, MO, serves the north-central Missouri region near Kansas City. Caitlin Dorrell has been raising these cattle following association-recommended health screenings and maintains detailed records to support breeding decisions. They participate in regional breeding gatherings and follow breed registry guidelines to ensure adherence to standards.

The herd grazes on open pasture and benefits from rotational grazing, with calving taking place in a sheltered barn to ensure early handling. Calves are socialized with family members from birth to promote calm temperaments and adaptability. The animals receive locally sourced hay during colder months, and fresh water is available at all times in pasture troughs.

Rusty Tinn Acres operates on land cultivated by the family for generations, with an emphasis on low-stress handling and sustainable pasture management. Their Scottish highland cattle are noted for hardy constitutions and gentle dispositions, supporting small-scale and hobby farmers alike.
