Four Girl Dexter Stud was serendipitously started in December of 2008 when Alison and Greg Cromwell decided to add cows to the mix of animals on their small farm near Byron Bay. The idea was to give their young daughters a small herd to milk and care for. After a few days of intense research, the perfect breed and aspiring breeder were discovered.
Enter Judith and Terry Hill, the legendary Dexter breeders. With the guidance of the Hill family, the Cromwell girls soon learned how to achieve the best of both beef and dairy traits in their Dexter herd. Today the Cromwell Dexter herd represents some of the best of the Dexter gene pool in Australia!
Mooove forward a few years, and the girls have come to truly love their little cows. Every day you can see them out among the herd, milking, exercising, and enjoying the Dexters. Our goal is to, through hard work and gentle care, ensure that we breed and sell only the best cattle and semen to small landholders looking for a family cow, young farmers looking for beef cow to raise and show, and other cattle producers who need specific dairy or beef traits that only the Dexter can provide.
We’re excited to say that Four Girl Dexter Stud has become Northern New South Wales’ premier supplier of Australian Dexter Cattle!
