Bradley Painter

Bradley Painter is a Shorthorn cattle breeder in Knoxville, PA, in Tioga County and north-central Pennsylvania near Williamsport. He has bred Shorthorn cattle for over a decade and maintains registrations with the national breed association while following recommended health testing protocols. His herd grazes on rotational pasture, and calves are raised in a low-stress environment with early handling to support steady growth and docile temperaments.

Painter’s farm sits on rolling hills that have hosted livestock production for generations, blending traditional practices with modern animal welfare standards. He prioritizes maternal traits and structural soundness to help cattle thrive in diverse conditions. Calving each spring supports herd health through seasonal adaptation, and balanced feeding plans emphasize high-quality forage and mineral programs. He attends regional fairs to benchmark his cattle alongside peers and refine selection criteria for sound structure and fertility.
