Ryan Highland Cattle Co

Ryan Highland Cattle Co is a Scottish highland cattle breeder in Conway Springs, KS, in Sumner County and the Wichita area. Shawn Ryan is a member of the American Highland Cattle Association and ensures all cattle receive routine veterinarian examinations and genetic testing for common herd conditions.

Calves are raised on open pasture with regular handling to develop calm temperaments, and the herd grazes rotationally to support pasture health. Detailed pedigrees are maintained for each animal, reflecting over a decade of selective breeding aimed at preserving the breed’s hallmark resilience and docile nature. As a family operation, the farm blends traditional husbandry with sustainable practices such as composted manure for soil enrichment. This approach fosters robust cattle well suited to diverse climates and provides peace of mind for prospective buyers. Visitors often remark on the herd’s calm behavior and the farm’s quiet, tree-lined paddocks.
