Blake Ulerick

Blake Ulerick is a Shorthorn cattle breeder in Walton, IN, serving Central Indiana near Indianapolis. For more than fifteen years he has focused on bloodlines valued for longevity, fertility and consistent performance. A member of the American Shorthorn Association, he follows recommended health screening protocols for genetic diseases and overall herd well-being.

Calves and breeding stock are raised on rotational pastures with access to natural shelter, clean water and balanced forages, with daily handling to support calm temperaments. Herd sizes are kept small to ensure individualized care and to monitor each animal’s development closely. His approach emphasizes sustainable grazing practices, soil conservation and the integration of cover crops to enhance pasture health and local ecosystems.

Each spring newborn calves spend the first weeks in a dedicated calving barn, receiving individual health checks and gentle handling to support early socialization. Local beef and dairy operations have noted the herd’s docile nature and sound conformation when selecting breeding stock.
