• 5th generation ranchers, raising the 6th

• Registered American Black Hereford and Angus

• Commercial cow/calf operation and seedstock

• Genomically tested. We take data seriously

As generational cow/calf operators we know how important bull selection is. We love the heterosis that running multiple breeds gives our calves, but we were tired of fighting the red sort and taking hide color discounts. When we discovered Black Herefords in 2010, it clicked for us. We could keep our crossbred program with our British based cow herd; maintaining the feed efficiency and docility that we loved from our Herefords while limiting our red discount risk and mixing in our growthy, performance Angus. For us it was a no brainer!

Our commercial cow/calf herd is truly the testing ground for our bull genetics and they work.

#CATTLE WITH GRIT

#cattlewithgrit is more than a cheesy marketing tagline for us - it’s an ethos. Our cattle have grit because they have to. Our story began in the high desert mountains where cattle were run by the section, not the acre. After decades of drought and frustrations with public lands ranching, we made the decision to move cows, kids and crew 600 miles to the Great Plains. Despite the forage and weather changes (hello humidity and -40° winters), these cattle are thriving because they have been bred with grit!
