Bar-Kows Miniature Herefords

Bar-Kows Miniature Herefords is a breeder of miniature Hereford cattle in Clintonville, WI, serving Waupaca County and the Fox Cities near Appleton. Michael Barkow has over a decade of experience raising miniature Hereford cattle with American Miniature Hereford Association membership and routine health testing for common bovine conditions.

Calves are raised on pasture and in clean, climate-controlled shelters to support steady growth and gentle handling from birth. Breeding stock is selected for sound structure, calm disposition and maternal instincts passed down through generations on the family farm. The ranch operates as a small-scale enterprise where each animal receives individualized attention and daily interaction with the family.

One buyer noted that their calf arrived well socialized and adapting smoothly to its new environment. Regular health checks, dietary monitoring and rotational grazing practices help maintain herd wellness year-round. Nearby timberlands and pastures offer varied forage and encourage natural behaviors throughout the seasons.
