Edgin Cattle

Edgin Cattle breeds Hereford cattle in Cherokee, AL, Cherokee County and northeast Alabama near Huntsville. The farm has been raising registered Hereford cattle for more than ten years and follows breed association guidelines with regular health, fertility and genetic diversity testing.

Calves are nurtured on open pasture with rotational grazing and introduced to daily handling to build calm temperaments. The herd resides in a mix of wooded paddocks and open grasslands to support natural foraging and seasonal sheltering. Owners emphasize low-stress management, balanced nutrition and ongoing family involvement in daily care.

Operating on family land, the operation draws on decades of livestock traditions for consistent herd quality. Their breeding approach balances temperament, structural soundness and maternal traits to support varied production goals, and several local beef producers note the uniform growth and sturdy frame of their cattle. The farm participates in local agricultural events and shares best practices with neighboring operations.
