Elevated Highlands

Elevated Highlands, Scottish highland cattle in Elbert, CO, is part of Elbert County and the Front Range near Colorado Springs. Ronald Turenne has been breeding Scottish highland cattle for several years, follows American Highland Cattle Association guidelines, and maintains routine health screening. Its cattle graze native grass pastures, have access to shelter, and receive daily handling to support calm temperaments. Calves are born on-site and socialized with family members, ensuring they're comfortable with handling from an early age.

Elevated Highlands uses rotational grazing to preserve pasture health, and all animals undergo regular veterinary checkups. Visitors note the herd's gentle nature and mention clear communication from Ronald throughout the breeding process. Each year, calves are also registered with breed associations to maintain a documented lineage. The farm's location on gentle slopes helps with natural drainage and reduces stress for the animals.
