We have a small group of foundation animals on our farm. We are breeding for good confirmation, pretty heads, meat and milk production. We are also interested in the dun gene coloring and A2 milk and are working to increase these traits for the betterment of the breed.
Our dun cows and bull will produce dun calves that are A2 milk as well. Our Dexter calves will be for sale.
We call him Neo because he is "The One." He is a beautiful polled dark chocolate dun bull. Homozygous black with A2 beta casein. All of his calves will be black or dun. Still young at not quite 2 years old, his first calves were born April 2025, and we expect 2 more in September of this year. These two September calves will come from our dun cows and are both guaranteed be dun.
Neo will continue to grow and fill out in the coming years. He shows great promise with his thick shoulders and neck, not to mention his perfect "bull" head. He enjoys treats and is calm and quiet. His 2 April calves are showing great promise - well-proportioned with pretty heads. Neo is the full package.

Hazel is a lovely medium dark dun Dexter cow and is bred to Neo for a September dun calf. She is polled and A2 beta casein. Check back with us in September if you are looking for your own dun calves to raise.
Olive is our light dun Dexter cows also bred to Neo for a September calf. She is polled and A2 beta casein. Bred to Neo, we are guaranteed she will produce only dun calves. Her Dexter calves will be obligate A2 milk.
Mazie is a rich chocolate brown dun. She is homozygous polled and A2 beta casein. If we keep Sadie, she will be bred to Neo for a spring 2026 calf, but if not, we will wait and breed her for a 2026 September calf to coincide with Hazel's and Olive's calving next year.
