Are you looking for beautiful, small cattle? I am celebrating almost 20 years of breeding them!
Yes, they can be registered as miniature cattle. Yes, they are beautiful. Yes, they are occasionally for sale. My small, traditional White Galloway cattle are born and bred for hobby farmers. Equally suitable for first-time cattle owners and show ring competitors, Gold Creek cattle are a joy to own.
These are not your ordinary cattle. I am not your ordinary cattle breeder. My GOLD CREEK White Galloway cattle are bred specifically to be small, docile, and super friendly. They are so quiet; I have been training our cattle to be animal-assisted therapy (AAT) co-workers since 2007. You can support the work of training our AAT cattle by adopting one of my cows or calves or purchasing a mascot. Adopters are invited to visit their cow or calf on our farm to enjoy some 'cow time'. You can check out the adoption visitors in our paddocks on:
Just three minutes from the heritage town of Braidwood, southern NSW, Australia, I breed these beautiful Galloway cattle for the sheer pleasure of it. And it is a pleasure.
I have come a long way. In 2006, my partner and I started out as first-time cattle owners. Today I breed registered full-blood and purebred traditional White Galloway cattle that would make any stud owner proud (and my partner has discovered the joys of beekeeping and is now doing that instead!) No longer a first-timer, I now enjoy teaching others my effective, low-stress approach to raising extremely docile, people-friendly cattle.
Galloway cattle are a heritage livestock breed. An ancient Scottish breed, they are the oldest of all British breeds. Unlike most commercial beef breeds, Galloways have not been bred bigger and bigger over many generations. Galloways are mid-sized cattle that can be registered as miniatures. These cattle are extremely docile, very attractive, and incredibly hardy.
The integrity of my GOLD CREEK herd is of paramount importance to us. I welcome the DNA testing of any herd member sold by me.
Just imagine yourself enjoying:
Non-selective grazers that like to be handled.
Cows calving well past their teenage years.
Unassisted Calving.
Very fertile bulls.
A low-maintenance herd.
Highly sought-after cattle.
Calf Adoption Program
Since 2010, my calf adoption programme has supported my specialist cows through their AAT training and enabled me to send the profits to farm animal sanctuaries in Australia. I still send a percentage of the profits to these sanctuaries today. Adoptions include a special invitation to visit your adopted cow or calf and their whole herd in our paddocks for some cow cuddling!
Adoptions are a $360 one-off payment ($399, including a custom plush mascot – postage included). Adopting is sponsoring; it is not purchasing. A friend or family member is welcome to join you in our paddocks when you visit your calf.
My herd is handled almost every day. Many individuals every day from the minute they are born. I rarely separate our cows and calves from one another, which means they are happy, and it allows me to enjoy the wonder of the "whole herd" experience. I only breed quiet cattle. My little bulls are extremely quiet.
GOLD CREEK Galloway Stud is three minutes from historic Braidwood, NSW, Australia.
