Our Cattle

Our cattle are all range raised in large, dry-land gramma-grass, malapai rock pastures. They must maintain their fertility, soundness and milking ability all with little extra care just like our family’s commercial beef cows do. They continue to thrive and adapt to their harsh high desert environment and those who cannot prosper under these conditions are rigorously culled. Our Line-One based cow herd continues to produce bulls and heifers that work for our customers throughout the Southwest. The cows are moderately sized, adequately pigmented, good uddered cows that wean a calf every year. We have influenced our genetics with herd bull purchases from some of the top Northwest breeders in the country including Coyler Herefords, Holden Herefords and Hutchens Herefords. Recently we have also started using some AI sires from Sandhills Farms in Kansas and Upstream Herefords in Nebraska. After a short breeding season, we clean-up our cow herd with high caliber Registered Angus bulls and have a nice selection of black-baldy heifers for sale after weaning in the fall.

We welcome visitors to the ranch anytime. Our registered bull calves as well as the registered heifers and black-baldy heifers are available starting November 1st every year after weaning. Stop by, look at the calves and visit. We would love to meet you!
