The Bones Ranch

The Bones Ranch raises AHCA-registered highland cattle on 250 acres of hills, hollows, woods, and streams in Casar, North Carolina, situated in the foothills of the state's South Mountains. Ryan and Cara Scott have operated the family-run ranch since 2018, with the property offering a naturally varied landscape that shapes how they manage the land and their animals.

The fold is bred to meet the Scottish Highland Cattle Standard, with an emphasis on conformation, coat quality, and traditional type. Sire and dam selection reflects that commitment — the ranch's bull carries a pedigree that includes a past national champion, and one of their show heifers earned champion titles at the New York State Fair, the World Beef Expo, and the Block and Bridle competition. For anyone searching for highland cattle for sale in North Carolina, the ranch sits roughly an hour west of Charlotte in the South Mountains corridor.

Cattle at The Bones Ranch are raised on pasture and are not grain-fed; sweet feed is used only occasionally as a handling aid. The ranch also maintains an active interest in highland coat color genetics, reflecting a thoughtful, research-minded approach to the overall breeding program.
