Dft Range LLC

Dft Range LLC breeds Wagyu cattle in Felton, Delaware, serving the Delaware region and the Philadelphia area. Its program follows guidelines from breed registries and includes health testing, individual record-keeping, and traceable lineage.

The herd grazes on rotational pasture with access to shelter barns and clean water ponds, while calves receive individual wellness checks and ear tagging at birth for early monitoring. Veterinary oversight includes breeding soundness exams, parasite control, and vaccination schedules to support herd vitality. Owner Jeff Noseworthy applies sustainable pasture management practices that build soil health and encourage balanced nutrition.

The farm is family run, and routines emphasize gentle handling and social interaction so cattle adapt confidently to new settings. The focus on genetic selection helps maintain consistent marbling traits and calm temperaments in each calf. Calves join family life from weaning through backgrounding, which eases their transition to other operations.
