Dexters - Waingaro Herd
Dexters are the smallest purebred breed of cattle in the world. They are a dual purpose animal, producing excellent meat and high quality milk in respectable quantities. The breed originated in Ireland, where the cattle thrived in the sparse mountainous regions. We breed them using imported UK semen.Unfortunately someone had already registered 'Kahurangi' so when we diversified into Dexter cattle we had to use Waingaro as our Herd name. Waingaro is the river at the back of our property and translates as 'hidden water' but see the picture of it in the last monsoon!
It never rains but it floods!
The sun shines
A Little Bull A day old heifer
