Turtle Rock Ranch

Turtle Rock Ranch, Highland cattle, Guntersville, AL, operates in north Alabama near Huntsville. Paige Jett has guided breeding efforts for nearly a decade and maintains memberships in national cattle associations, following recommended health screening and vaccination protocols to support herd well-being and genetic soundness. The animals graze across rotating pastures with shelter provided in weather extremes, and calves remain with their mothers to encourage early social interactions and acclimation to varied terrain.

Founded on sustainable agrarian values, the ranch features rolling fields shaded by mature trees and emphasizes low-stress handling to preserve the cattle’s calm nature. Local smallholders often note the gentle disposition and hardiness of these Highland cattle, which adapt well to both pasture-intensive and mixed-forage systems. The blend of thoughtful stewardship and attention to herd dynamics reflects a commitment to responsible breeding that prioritizes animal welfare alongside regional traditions.
