Anvil B Farm

Anvil B Farm, miniature Hereford cattle, Lingle, WY, Goshen County and the High Plains near Cheyenne.
Owned by Timothy Barkman, it has been raising miniature Hereford stock for over a decade with a focus on registry-backed breeding and routine health testing as a member of the American Hereford Association.

The herd grazes on irrigated pasture with access to shelter year-round, and calves are handled daily to foster calm temperaments and early socialization. Timothy applies rotational grazing practices learned through university extension workshops and monitors individual animal wellness through scheduled veterinary checks. Families often comment on the calm disposition and consistent calf size, noting strong maternal instincts in the cows during local 4-H and county fair exhibitions.

The farm’s commitment to gentle handling and transparent breeding records aims to help small-scale operations grow responsibly. A history of selective pairing over generations supports predictable coat patterns and steady growth rates. Feedback highlights the approachable nature of the herd and the clear communication around herd health plans.
