Petunia’s baby

This polled Dun Highland Cross Calf, a.k.a Petunia’s Baby is a stunning solid dun HighPark cross calf with amazing color, great conformation, and a sweet, people-loving personality.

He is 75% Highland, polled dun highland cross calf. Because of that, he brings beautiful Highland influence, while his HighPark background adds the benefit of being naturally polled. That means he will not grow horns.

In addition, his dam, RCM Petunia, is a Dun Tipped HighPark from RCM, one of the respected leading breeders in the miniature cattle industry.

He was born on 11/20/2025. Since then, he has been weaned, trained, and handled daily through our low-stress program.

Today, he handles halter work, leading, brushing, and grooming sessions like a champ. Because of that strong foundation, he is a special option for someone wanting a trained, friendly, and eye-catching calf.

Size and Structure

Petunia’s boy is a Highland / HighPark cross out of RCM Petunia, a beautiful Dun Tipped HighPark cow.

His suspected sire is Casper, our Micro Dun Tipped HighPark; Dunniel, our Miniature Dun HighDex; or Mikey, our Miniature White Highland. DNA testing will confirm parent verification.

With his color, conformation, and Highland influence, Petunia’s boy has the potential to grow into a handsome, well-balanced, and eye-catching miniature bull or steer.

Also, he is chondro-negative and naturally polled, so he will not grow horns.

His Personality

Petunia’s boy is sweet, gentle, and very people-oriented.

He loves people and enjoys being pet and scratched. Plus, he already feels very comfortable with hands-on attention.

Because he has such a friendly personality, he is easy to enjoy and easy to fall in love with.

He also has a strong training foundation. Therefore, he offers a wonderful option for someone wanting a calf with handling, trust, and low-stress training already in place.

Bull or Steer Potential

Petunia’s boy can go as a young bull or be castrated and go as a steer, depending on the buyer’s goals.

As a bull, he offers a nice option for someone wanting a dun HighPark-influenced miniature cross with strong color, good conformation, and a gentle temperament.

In addition, his Highland influence, polled status, and people-friendly nature make him a very attractive prospect.

As a steer, he could be fantastic for petting experiences, hands-on programs, agritourism, or as a sweet companion animal.

Because of his gentle personality, love for attention, and solid training foundation, he makes a promising candidate for a family farm, visitor-based setting, or cuddle program.
