Meet Our Herd


Say hello to our Moo Crew—a charming mix of Highland and Highpark cattle with soft noses, big personalities, and plenty of fluff to go around. Each one is a little different: some love a good cuddle, others lean in for a brush or a treat, but all of them are raised with kindness, calm, and lots of love.

We’ve hand-selected our herd from gentle, well-loved bloodlines to create not just a strong breeding program, but a herd that feels like family. Whether they’re greeting guests, playing in the pasture, or getting ready for their next big moment, every cow here brings something special to Lucky Pennie.

Come meet the faces behind the fluff—you’ll understand what's so special.

MayBel

Breed: Highland

Height (Expected): 40–42 inches

Color: Silver or Dun (verdict is still out)
Born: April 16, 2025
Personality: Observant & Independent


MayBel is a thoughtful little Highland with a quiet charm all her own. She likes to take her time, hanging back to watch before joining in—but when she does, her curiosity and sass come shining through. She’s especially fond of chatting up the older cows and keeping a close eye on the pasture happenings. Don’t be fooled by her petite size—her tiny “mooo” packs a punch, and she’s already made it clear to Diesel who’s really running the show.


Charlotte

Breed: Highland

Height (Expected): 38–40 inches

Color: Red Wild

Born: May 13, 2025

Personality: Playful energy with lots of cautious curiosity


Charlotte is the tiniest member of the Moo Crew—and already a total scene-stealer. She came to the farm at just a week old and is settling in beautifully, full of playful energy, curiosity, and a strong love for her bottle. Based on the size of her parents Charlotte will stay delightfully petite, but her personality is already showing up in a big way. We’re soaking up every moment with her and can’t wait to watch her grow into the sweet little lady we know she’s meant to be.

Amelia

Breed: Highpark

Chondro status: Positive

Height (Expected): 38 inches

Color: Black (white with black tip)

Born: January 2025
Personality: Cautious & Loyal


Amelia is a thoughtful little Highpark with a soft, steady presence that grows sweeter the longer you’re with her. The daughter of the well-known “Chip,” she carries a gentle confidence all her own. While she may take a moment to warm up, once she trusts you, get ready for affectionate licks and lingering nuzzles. Amelia is rarely far from her best friend Willow—their bond is as close as it is heartwarming, and together, they’re a picture of pasture-perfect friendship.


Diesel

Breed: HighPark (Registered #231147)

Height (Expected): 38-40 inches

Color: Black (white with black tip)
Born: April 23, 2025
Personality: Playful & People-Loving


Diesel is one to watch. This handsome Highpark calf brings top-tier genetics to the farm—he’s sired by Makin’ Bacon, son of the legendary Little Sancho—and he's already living up to the hype. Bottle-raised and brimming with personality, Diesel would rather hang with people than pasture mates any day. He’s playful, attention-loving, and has a way of charming his way right into your heart (and your lap, if you let him). With his strong lineage and even stronger fan club, Diesel is quickly becoming a standout here at Lucky Pennie Farms.

Maggie Moo

Breed: Highland
Height (Expected): 39–41 inches

Color: Black
Born: November 2023

Personality: Sweet & Easygoing


Maggie is a gentle soul with a whole lot of heart. This sweet Highland mini is known for her calm presence, her love of head scratches, and the way she leans into a good brushing like it’s the best part of her day (because it is). She’s the kind of girl who wins guests over without even trying—quiet, affectionate, and always ready for a treat. Maggie will be joining our breeding program in fall 2025, and we couldn’t be more excited to see her pass along that kind, steady temperament we’ve all fallen in love with.


Missy Moo

Breed: Highland

Height: (Expected) 40 - 42 inches

Color: Red

Born: January 5, 2024

Personality: Cautious & Curious


Missy Moo is still learning her manners and getting more comfortable around people. While she’s a bit hesitant about being petted or brushed, she’s curious and will often come to the fence to sniff your hand.

Miss Goldie (Stella)

Breed: Highland

Height: 41 inches

Color: Dun
Born: June 2022
Personality: Inquisitive & Friendly


Miss Goldie (Stella) is the very definition of an “in-your-pocket” kind of cow—never more than a few steps away and always ready for attention. With her sunny personality (and sunny Florida roots), she fit right into our South Carolina herd like she’s always belonged. Goldie will be joining our breeding program this fall, and we couldn’t be more excited to watch her pass on that sweet, social spark that makes her such a joy to be around.


Willow

Breed: Highpark

Chondro status: Positive
Height (Expected): 38 inches

Color: Black (white with black tip)
Born: November 2024

Personality: Affectionate & Social


Willow is our official welcome committee—always the first to the gate, always ready for love. She’s quick to offer a nuzzle, faster to ask for neck scratches (chin up and all!), and if you sit down, don’t be surprised if she tries to climb right into your lap. Willow and her pasture bestie, Amelia, are two peas in a pod—you’ll almost never see one without the other. With her social sparkle and lovable charm, Willow brings sunshine wherever she goes.

Matilda

Breed: Highland

Height: 45 inches

Color: Yellow
Born: August 2, 2022
Personality: Observant & Independent


Matilda is the matriarch of the herd, a calm and steady presence who’s taken young Missy Moo under her wing—rarely seen without her close by. Though a bit shy about being petted, Matilda is naturally curious and always aware of her surroundings. She patiently waits for her grain and, if you’re gentle, will let you sneak in a head rub while she eats. Matilda is also expecting the very first calf born at Lucky Pennie Farms, due in September 2025.



Ira

Breed: Highland

Height: 42 inches

Color: Brindle

Born: March 2023

Personality: Affectionate & Humble


Ira is the newest addition to our herd and currently serves as our only breeding bull. Friendly and full of personality, he loves to greet visitors and will eagerly stretch his chin out for a good neck scratch. Though he’s settling into his role in the breeding program, he’s already learned a thing or two about herd dynamics—thanks to Matilda, who’s made sure he knows who’s really in charge!
