Small size means small cuts of meat. Small feed bills. Smaller acreage needed. The public is becoming more health conscious. They want more natural meat. With the miniature you can grow your own meat in
your backyard. You know what you are eating so when you butcher them you know what your family is consuming.
With the smaller size one whole animal will fit in a family freezer. We have a waiting list for our freezer meat.
Early weaning, we wean our calves at 4 months. This allows us to breed back sooner to increase our
herd. Our mini Herefords are easy keepers. They stay nice and round without a lot of grass or grain. Photo from 2004 Supreme Grand Champion round at the Cow Palace, San Francisco, California. The Angus on the left, full size Hereford on the right and our Grand Champion Joker in the middle. Compare the muscle and thickness of these 3 champions.
You can market them as Hobby animals or they make excellent show animals for all levels of competition. The smaller size makes them easier to handle for adults or kids.
Their docile temperament allows them to become pets or treat them as a secondary source of income.
