Bringing a calf home
Reservations & pickup.
We keep calves with their dams until they are fully weaned and are happy to answer questions throughout the process.
Reservation
A 50% non-refundable deposit is due within 24 hours of selecting a calf, unless we have agreed to another arrangement. The remaining balance must be paid before the calf leaves the farm. Checks must clear first.
While your calf grows
We can schedule calls or FaceTime check-ins during weaning. We do not sell bottle babies; calves stay with their dams unless their safety requires otherwise.
Pickup or transport
You are responsible for arranging transportation directly with a transporter. We can help with local transport or recommend trusted transporters, including Almost Home Cattle Transport: Victor Ash at (417) 770-4675.
Getting ready
Cattle need another cow for companionship, shade and shelter, clean water, good hay or pasture, and minerals. Establish a relationship with a local veterinarian and have a safe chute or head gate before your calf arrives.
