Daniel Waydick

Daniel Waydick, Pineywoods cattle breeder in Summit, MS, Pike County and the Pine Belt near Hattiesburg. He has been involved in cattle breeding for over a decade, holds membership in the National Pineywoods Cattle Association, conducts annual health screenings for BVD and Johne’s disease, and follows vaccination protocols for common cattle illnesses. His herd grazes on rotational pasture with a focus on native forages, while routine veterinary care, comprehensive nutritional planning, and trace mineral supplementation support long-term herd health.

Young cattle are handled gently from birth in a bedding-lined calving barn that offers shelter and easy monitoring. Situated on family land passed down through generations, the ranch blends traditional husbandry with evolving welfare practices. Local farmers commend the consistency in temperament and soundness across his cattle.

Visitors often note the peaceful pastureland, attentive shepherding, and well-distributed calving seasons that reflect a commitment to sustainable breeding.
