Ehlke Herefords

Ehlke Herefords, a Hereford cattle breeder in Townsend, MT, is located in Lewis and Clark County near Helena. Ehlke Herefords has spent nearly two decades raising Hereford cattle and maintains membership in the American Hereford Association with routine health screenings and genetic evaluations. Calves are born and raised on open grassland where handlers visit daily to promote steady growth, early socialization and a gentle temperament. Bloodlines are selected for balanced build and feed efficiency, reflecting a focus on sound structure over rapid gain.

The farm’s rolling fields follow rotational grazing practices to support soil fertility and long-term herd vitality. Family records trace livestock performance across several generations, offering clear metrics for weight gain and carcass quality. During winter months, cattle shelter in well-ventilated barns and access mineral-fortified hay to maintain condition. Local owners note consistent confirmation and calm behavior, reflecting the breeder’s commitment to animal welfare.
