Welcome to Moosters Meadows - home of Irish Dexter Cattle! We strive to breed a truly dual purpose Dexter, providing both excellent beef and milk. All of our Dexters are purebred and registered with the American Dexter Cattle Association (ADCA). We'll be blogging about what goes on here on our little ranch in Wyoming and life with Dexters. Feel free to visit our website as well.

For Sale

These are two of the hardest words to speak at Moosters Meadows.  I know that we can't keep them all, although I wish it were possible.  So, we've been debating and making lists, then adding and subtracting from the lists...........  We think we are done, so I've started adding the "For Sales" to the web site. 

Since we have such a fine heifer crop this season, it's made the "For Sale" decisions even more difficult.  This is 'Dance's last season (his final Mooster babies will be in 2014), so we have been leaning heavily toward keeping more 'Dance babies -- and again, since we can't keep them all, it means that a few of our carefully chosen cows, along with a few very nice weanling heifers, are making the sale list.

So here goes.  I'll be posting on here and on the web site.  It's easier here and the photos are easier to add and for folks to see. 


This polled beauty is Legend Red Halo, who came to us a few years back from Oklahoma, although she was born in Texas.  A well traveled girl! 
 
All of her calves have had that same black nose and beautiful red coat.  She is not the top dog in the herd, but she's not the lowest on the totem pole either.  PHA and chondro free, she's been genotyped and is sire qualified.  Halo is not halter trained, but she is highly motivated by treats and will follow you pretty much anywhere for a handful of grain or a horse treat.  Very nice udder.
 
Give us a call or email if you'd like more pictures or more information. 
 
 
Up tomorrow:  Moosters Swing Dance
