In 1979 the Dickinson family owned 1/4th of the Full Blood Watusi in the USA. (see our first ad) Due to the extremely high prices that they fetched in the early 80's, ($20K-$25K) every Watusi was sold.
As years went by, we still are fascinated by the world's largest horned breed of cattle. In 1996 we started raising a small group. Each year some Longhorn/Watusi cattle will be available and now several purebred are for sale.
Mara Karaka is a daughter of Buffalo Bill. She is the flashy speckled style Watusi that commands the best sell prices. Her wide lateral horn and great African color create extra value.
Semen is available on the famous "Jimmy The Sweede" ($12) who was imported from Sweden. He was bred natural service at DCC and was the first Watusi with frozen semen in the World. He is the leading sire appearing in more Watusi pedigrees than any other bull.

Each year some young Watusi bulls are for sale. Bulls may be purchased with a 50% deposit with delivery at weaning time. DCC specializes in spotted, colorful Watusi with wide lateral horn.
