Black Wagyu Ranch

Black Wagyu Ranch, wagyu cattle breeder in Eupora, MS, is located in central Mississippi and the Jackson area. The operation follows recommended herd health protocols and adheres to guidelines set by national cattle associations.

Animals graze on rotational pastures and have access to open-air shelters, with regular handling to foster calm temperaments. Herd selection focuses on the wagyu breed’s hallmark marbling traits, aiming for predictable performance across production cycles. Michael Hewell raises each calf with attention to early socialization to support ease of handling and well-being. Visitors note the ranch’s relaxed atmosphere and attention to animal comfort throughout all stages of growth.

Calving occurs on pasture when conditions allow, and calves receive daily health checks to support steady growth, with herd records maintained openly to inform breeding decisions. Feeding programs combine high-quality forages with trace mineral supplementation to support optimal health.
