C&S Shorthorns LLC

C&S Shorthorns LLC, Shorthorn cattle in Walnut, MS, operates in Tippah County and northeast Mississippi near Memphis. Chris Talley has spent over two decades refining a breeding program that honors the breed’s innate hardiness and versatile nature. Their herd undergoes regular veterinary examinations, genetic health screenings recommended by breed association guidelines, and meticulous record keeping for each animal’s lineage and performance.

The cattle graze rotationally on mixed grass pastures designed to support soil health, promote biodiversity, and adapt to seasonal forage variations. Calves are nurtured in clean calving pens with shaded loafing areas and handled daily to encourage a calm, tractable temperament. Breeding decisions prioritize maternal strength, correct conformation, and disposition suited for both breeding and beef production.

Facilities include open barns and secure fencing that allow natural movement while protecting animal welfare year round. Local farmers often highlight the consistency in structure, temperament, and performance in C&S Shorthorns’ offerings.
