GOLD CREEK Miniature Galloway Cattle for Sale
Before we start talking to you about purchasing Gold Creek cattle, we need to get you on our Sales Contact List. So, please email us with your name, property location, property identification code (PIC) and contact details. We need these details so we can let you know when the cattle you are looking for become available. There are more details about the Sales Contact List below.
1. Unregistered Miniature Galloway Steers.
In February 2026, Gold Creek Galloway stud will be offering two three-year-old steers for sale. These two fellows were much-loved pets for two years down on the coast. Sadly, their original owner passed away a year ago. So, we are looking for a new home for these two steers. A little farm where they can live out their days as quiet, environmentally friendly lawn mowers, would be just perfect.
They are not born and bred Gold Creek cattle, so they are not really small or super quiet. But they are purebred Miniature White Galloway cattle. They are solid boys who will stand quietly and eat some hay while you stand close by and talk to them. The white fellow will let you brush him while he is eating hay in the paddock, but the black fellow will walk away. While it is true that they are not the expected Gold Creek quiet, they are calm. And they will be priced accordingly.
If you are looking for a couple of big, beautiful steers to keep your paddock pasture under control, please don't hesitate to contact Suzanne. No more paying for slashing, or spending hours mowing, and you get your pasture improved for free. You would need to be on a minimum of five or six acres to avoid having to hand-feed them too often.
2. Registered Galloways For Sale. Gold Creek will not have any registered cattle for sale in early 2026...
Gold Creek Buying Process
If you are serious about buying Gold Creek cattle, please take note:
Suzanne directs you to this information to protect you from disappointment. Sadly for the buyers, there are always more buyers than there are small White Galloway cattle for sale at any point in time. Suzanne is happier when these things do not end in disappointment or tears, and there have been tears (and a little bit of sulking!) Gold Creek cattle are only withdrawn from sale when a deposit is paid, and the receipt is sent to Suzanne. No exceptions.
The Gold Creek Sales Contact List and sales process is very different compared to most breeders. After years of steadily building an online presence, a solid reputation, and breeding an amazing, seriously quiet herd, Gold Creek Stud is in a very enviable position. Suzanne will have half a dozen buyers for any one cow/heifer or steer calf Gold Creek wants to sell. When you ask Suzanne for a price, you need to understand the situation and the process Suzanne has put in place to manage it.
The holding deposit is 20% of the purchase price.
BSB: 944-600
Account Number: 007811578
When Suzanne receives an email or text message from someone with a bank receipt for the deposit, she will withdraw the cattle from sale.
Deposits Are Fully Refundable
Buyers have 21 days from the time of paying the deposit to visit and check out cattle they have not already seen. If you have paid a deposit and then visit and discover that the cow/calf/bull you want is not as described or presented in photographs or video footage, Suzanne will refund your deposit in full. Returning a deposit for this reason has never been necessary. Suzanne aims to keep it that way.

Gold Creek Priorities
When Gold Creek miniature cattle leave their Braidwood property, our priority is to ensure they are well looked after in their new home. The gentle and compliant nature of these sweet little cattle should be treated with kindness and respect. It is important that our cattle go to kind people with the necessary setup, resources, and commitment needed to look after cattle. First-time livestock owners are always welcome. Our first-timers are given all the backup and support they need to enjoy owning these cattle from day one.
Buying Well-Handled Cattle
Buying quiet, well-handled cattle is not always as straightforward as it first appears. Cattle that will 'eat out of your hand' and quiet, well-handled cattle are not necessarily the same thing. Most cattle will come to you for food. Sadly, most of those animals will avoid you otherwise. That, or they will become pushy, demanding nuisances. This unwanted behaviour may seem cute when they're calves, but they grow up quickly, and a 450 kg full-grown nuisance is dangerous. Have you ever tried to push away a determined, demanding 500 kg nuisance? Yes, a miniature can weigh half a ton!
Gold Creek Sales Contact List
To be included on the Sales Contact List, you will need to email Suzanne at
Gold Creek likes to know quite a lot about you and which cattle you would like before selling cattle to you. The more information we have, the better able we are to match you up with the right cattle. And... by the time any cattle are ready to be sold, Suzanne will have spent weeks, months and more often years handling each of them daily and forming bonds (she gets attached). So, she needs to know the cattle will be well looked after when they leave Braidwood (or she won't be able to sleep at night).
Information about the number of cattle you want is important. Just as important is whether you want cows, bulls, heifers, steers, calves or mature cattle. What you want the cattle for is also relevant. Do you simply want pets or show ring performers? Do you want registered cattle for breeding? Will the cattle be companion animals for people with disabilities? Do you want cattle you can enjoy with children or grandchildren?
Suzanne sorts the people on the Sales Contest List into groups according to her understanding of their wants, needs, and priorities. When cattle are to be offered for sale, she will email the people she feels are a match to the cattle available.
Once you are on the Sales Contact List, it is important that you read our Gold Creek Buying Process (there is a link on this page, below). Suzanne will contact you when she is ready to sell any herd members meeting your requirements. The contact will be by email. The email will contain the information, but not the price. Once you ask for and receive a price, you have 48 hours to decide.
Transport
When purchasing cattle from Gold Creek Stud, Suzanne suggests you organise your own transportation with either a horse float or a small livestock trailer *. Or she can get someone from Braidwood to deliver the cattle to you in a safe, economic and timely manner. Currently, transportation costs range from $3.20 km for a horse float, loaded to $4.00 per kilometre for a truck with a cattle crate loaded. This is an indication only, increasing fuel prices may impact costs.
Gold Creek Prices
Gold Creek prices are commensurate with the quality of the Gold Creek cattle. The price range for steers in pairs starts at $7800, ($3900 each) and only goes up from there. Pricing depends on the size, colour and temperament of the individual. Go to the FAQ page for a more detailed outline of the price range.
If you are looking for wary little grass eaters, at bargain-basement prices, you have come to the wrong place.
In some instances Suzanne will subsidise the price of Gold Creek's highly trained Animal-Assisted Therapy cattle so that they can be placed where they are needed the most.
When cattle are offered for sale, they are very 'user-friendly'. When they are sold, Suzanne tries to ensure they will stay that way. Therefore, she will not sell her cattle unless she is 100% confident they will be well looked after. Transportation from the Gold Creek property to yours must be well planned.
Gold Creek sells:
A. Show ring performers.
B. Cows and bulls for breeding purposes.
C. Gentle paddock pets for the joy of owning such beautiful animals.
D. Lifestyle property management - peaceful lawn mowers for the small acreage owner.
Potential buyers are welcome to visit after Suzanne contacts them by email about cattle for sale. All visitors are invited into the paddocks to handle these small GOLD CREEK Galloway cattle. Visits are by email appointment only. Yes, you need to be on our Sales Contact List to get that email.
Please note: There are Miniature Galloway Breeders in most Australian States. Where possible, it is better for you, your finances and the cattle if you can purchase your Miniature White Galloway cattle local to you.
