4 H Ranch

4 H Ranch breeds Hereford cattle in Dora, MO, in Ozark County and the Ozark Mountains near Springfield. Following American Hereford Association guidelines, it conducts regular health testing for traits like calving ease and disposition. Calves spend their early weeks in sheltered paddocks, where they receive daily handling to build a calm temperament before moving to open pasture. Adult herds rotate across grass-rich fields, allowing for natural grazing patterns.

The ranch’s seasonal approach aligns breeding cycles with local forage availability, ensuring steady growth and robust health. A purpose-built calving barn provides shelter and dry bedding for expectant cows during the busy birthing season. Bloodlines are selected for maternal strength and sound conformation, a choice reflected in reports of strong calf survival rates and easy weaning. With a simple, pasture-based setup and an emphasis on welfare, this operation offers Hereford cattle suited both to commercial ranching and family farms.
