Audrey L Hambright

Audrey L Hambright raises Hereford cattle in Chapman, KS, Dickinson County in the Smoky Hills near Salina. Her program follows guidelines from the American Hereford Association and includes regular herd health screenings, genetic evaluation, and clear herd records.

She established the herd more than a decade ago, focusing on structural soundness, longevity, and resilience to local weather extremes. Calves grow on open pasture with low-stress handling and daily human interaction to promote calm temperaments from their earliest weeks. Pasture rotation and seasonal forage diversity reflect her emphasis on sustainable land stewardship and soil health.

Her commitment to balanced productivity and maternal strength supports both commercial and hobby operations across varied climates. Routine vaccinations and parasite management are scheduled in coordination with a local large-animal veterinarian. Clients often note the healthy condition of the calves and their gentle nature during farm visits.
