Lazy Knoll Farm Highland Calf Sale Process
When a calf becomes available for sale, we’ll announce it ahead of time. If you’re interested in bidding on that specific calf, please email Elizabeth Payne at lazyknollfarm@gmail.com to let us know you'd like to participate. This helps us create a list of active bidders prior to the start of the auction. You're welcome to submit your opening bid during this time, but it’s not required until the sale begins.
The live bidding will begin at 7:00 PM Eastern Time with updates sent out every 15 minutes. The sale will officially end at 8:00 PM, or once all but one bidder has dropped out. If bidding is still active at 8:00 PM, those remaining bidders will be moved into a joint email thread to communicate directly with me and with each other. (An active bidder is defined as anyone who places a new bid within 15 minutes of the current high bid.)
This auction format ensures buyers have advance notice of available calves and allows for a focused, one-hour bidding window.
Thank you for your interest and support!

Lazy Knoll Randy was born August 21, 2025 on Mrs Lazy Knoll's fathers birthday - which is where he got his name!
Lazy Knoll Randy has spectacular markings with a very short fluffy face. Who wouldn't love this guy?!
He may be sold as a bull or steered upon request upon weaning (steer requests must be paid in full prior to steering).
*Lazy Knoll Randy will be weaned on approximately February 21, 2025 and will be ready for his new home at that time!*

AHCA Red Bull: Lazy Knoll Rory (AHCA #Pending) (Available)
Lazy Knoll Rory is a red AHCA Bull out of our most regal red cow Schon Boden's Leila #54,940 & our dun herd sire Cactus Hill Shawnee #66,281. His name comes from the Scottish name "Rory" or "Red King."
Lazy Knoll Rory was born August 1, 2025 to a very attentive and loving dam. He has impressive lineage between Rhioghail of Balmoral and Gusgurlach of Windrush lines as well as several other Champion bulls.
Because of his impressive lineage we are discussing retaining him and showing him. So he will be currently offered at $4500 pending our decision.
*Lazy Knoll Rory is currently nursing off of his mother and will not be available until he is weaned at approximately 6 months old on February 1, 2026*
(May be purchased for $4500 pending our decision to retain or not)
AHCA Yellow Steer: Lazy Knoll Beavis (AHCA #Pending) (Available)
Lazy Knoll Beavis is a yellow AHCA bottle baby steer out of our yellow cow Spring Hill's Ida #67,353 & Cactus Hill Shawnee #66,281.
Lazy Knoll Beavis was born July 16, 2025 with contracted legs which made it difficult for him to walk. Beavis was taken to the vet for a checkup, of which he was determined to be healthy but slightly premature which contributed to his contracted joints. We worked with him daily stretching and massaging his front legs and he was up and walking within approximately 1 week. At that point he had been bottle fed as he was unable to stand for his dam, so it was decided he would be a bottle baby steer for safety reasons.
Beavis is the highlight of the farm now, everyone loves him, he is incredibly sweet and would make the perfect companion for a lonely bull or heifer.
He is also halter trained and would make an excellent agritourism candidate for either a petting zoo or photography venture.
*Lazy Knoll Beavis will be weaned off the bottle approximately September 16, 2025 and will be ready for his new home at that time!*
*Lazy Knoll Beavis’s auction is scheduled for Friday, September 19, 2025, starting at 7:00 pm Eastern Time. Opening bid is $1,500*
(May be purchased prior to auction for $2000)
AHCA Red Heifer: Lazy Knoll Holly (AHCA #71,317) (PENDING)
Lazy Knoll Holly is a red AHCA heifer out of our red cow NRL Misty Rainy Lynn #66,010 & our previous black herd sire Valley View Kid Kane #64,663.
Lazy Knoll Holly was born June 25, 2025 and is already very independent and curious in nature. She has very light eyes we anticipate will likely be green like her dam.
Lazy Knoll Holly's lineage includes names such as 7R Yellow Sunset of historic Pimushe farms White Lightening as well as Kanaka Hill Maximillian, and Gusgurlach of Windrush 6015.
*Lazy Knoll Holly is currently nursing off of her mother and will not be available until she is weaned at approximately 6 months old on December 25, 2025 - Just in time for Christmas!*
Mini High-Dex Black Bull: Lazy Knoll Shadow (Available)
Lazy Knoll Shadow, is a black 50/50 Highland/Dexter bull born April 8, 2025 out of our three time registered chondro + dun Dexter cow Triple T Rosie #L04560TH-22HH and our previous AHCA herd sire Valley View Kid Kane #64,663.
We anticipate Lazy Knoll Shadow will be very small in stature as his dam Rosie is 36" at her back and Kid Kane is 41" at his back. We do not believe he is chondro + however he will be tested prior to weaning.
He may be sold as a bull or steered upon request upon weaning (steer requests must be paid in full prior to steering).
*Lazy Knoll Shadow is currently nursing off of his mother and will not be available until he is weaned at approximately 6 months old on October 8, 2025.*

Ella Della has a deep body with a mahogany red color fur and a handsome curly dossan (the famous highland "bangs").
