Francis Cattle

Francis Cattle raises Miniature Hereford cattle in Amity, PA, Berks County and the Delaware Valley near Philadelphia. Tad Francis has been breeding these cattle for several years and follows American Miniature Hereford Breeders Association guidelines for herd health screening. The cattle receive regular veterinary care and genetic testing for common conditions.

Each calf is introduced to hands-on handling from an early age and grazes on rotational pastures free of chemicals. They live in open barns with fresh bedding and access to salt blocks, promoting steady growth and calm temperaments. The farm’s historic stone barn and family-run approach create a homey environment that reflects a respect for sustainable husbandry. Many buyers note the consistent size and friendly nature of these cattle, making them well-suited to small-scale farms and homesteads.

The farm participates in local agriculture fairs, showcasing breeding stock and sharing insights with fellow growers.
