DJ's Critter Crossing
DJ’s Critter Crossing are Scottish highland cattle breeders in Battleview, ND, in northwestern North Dakota near Minot. Owned and operated by Dustin Rudd and Jaclyn Benfiet, the ranch follows breed association guidelines and keeps comprehensive health records, with each animal receiving routine veterinary care and recommended genetic screenings. The cattle graze on open pastures during warmer months and have access to sheltered yards when needed, fostering natural herd dynamics.
Their approach blends time-honored grazing methods with low-stress handling, ensuring calves are socialized early and accustomed to gentle management. Breeding stock is chosen for temperament and structural soundness, making these cattle well suited to small-scale farms or exhibition herds. Ongoing support and practical advice are available to new owners, reflecting the breeders’ commitment to responsible livestock stewardship. Morning and evening routines include inspections of pasture conditions and herd health, and winter feeding plans focus on locally sourced hay. They also share knowledge about rotational grazing and animal welfare with nearby farming communities.
