Bill Johnson

Bill Johnson, Hereford cattle breeder in Paulding, OH, works in the northwest Ohio region near Toledo. His multi-generational ranch follows American Hereford Association guidelines for genetic selection, quarterly veterinary checkups, routine health testing, and detailed record-keeping for each animal.

The herd grazes rotationally on extensive nutrient-rich pastures spanning rolling fields that Bill manages for soil health, forage diversity, and erosion control. Cattle are handled daily in low-stress pens and receive early socialization to develop steady temperaments. Facilities include open-sided barns for shelter, heated water troughs in winter, and spacious exercise areas that contribute to uniform growth and sound structure.

Bill regularly provides registered weaning weights and pedigree records to buyers, updates his online health logs, and has supplied animals to local livestock fairs and youth programs. He focuses on breeding balanced cattle suited for both family operations and small-scale commercial producers, while sharing expertise in handling workshops.
