Cole Heizer

Cole Heizer is a shorthorn cattle breeder in Middlebrook, VA, serving Augusta County and the Shenandoah Valley near Staunton. With a background rooted in local farming traditions, Cole Heizer has developed a herd known for balanced muscling and gentle temperament. Membership in the American Shorthorn Association and routine health screenings support the herd’s long-term soundness.

Animals graze on rotational pasture with ample shelter and fresh water, and calves receive regular handling to build calm, confident behavior. Attention to soil health and forage diversity reflects a stewardship approach that values the land as much as the livestock. Many customers note the herd’s consistency at county fairs and small-scale farm events.

Breeding decisions are guided by performance records and temperament assessments to ensure each generation builds on proven strengths. Calves typically remain on pasture for the first six months under close observation.
