Schramm Highlands

Schramm Highlands, Scottish Highland cattle, Moville, IA, Woodbury County near Sioux City, are a family-run breeder with ten years’ experience. They participate in a national breed registry and follow recommended health testing protocols, including genetic screening and routine parasite monitoring, to maintain herd vitality. Calves are raised on pasture with daily handling under shaded shelters, and adults graze rotationally to support natural behaviors.

This pasture-based approach draws on a multi-generation farm heritage, and customers often note the consistent calm nature of the cattle. Pasture diversity includes a mix of native grasses, legumes, and clover to promote balanced nutrition throughout the seasons. Annual veterinary checks, including parasite screening and hoof trimming, further ensure herd health. They also incorporate summer mineral supplementation to support optimal growth and reproductive performance. Feeding schedules include morning and evening mineral licks to complement the pasture diet.
