Dexter Farm is our small acreage cattle property in the outer metropolitan area of Perth, Western Australia. Our passion for the last 15 years has been Dexter cattle – an ancient Irish breed that was considered endangered a decade or two ago.
Since shifting from the country we’ve had to downsize, and we no longer show cattle as much as we used to. Yet we continue to experience a great deal of success when we do venture into the ring. And, unlike others, we’ve done it with polled (naturally hornless) Dexters. We have deliberately kept our blood-lines separate from those of most other Dexter breeders around Perth.
We still breed stud Dexters, but we’re not ‘big-time’ breeders. If you want heifers, bulls or cows from the lines that we’ve developed, you may need to wait until we can find just the right animal for you. Or you may be lucky.
In this website we have tried to introduce you to some of our current stock as well provide useful information. Please feel free to contact us – and maybe visit Dexter Farm in person. The kettle’s on.
