Fred & Shelly Weber

Fred & Shelly Weber, Hereford cattle, Lockhart, TX, Central Texas near Austin. They have been raising Hereford cattle for over two decades, maintaining membership in the American Hereford Association and performing routine health screenings, including BVD and Johne’s tests.

Their animals graze on open pastures and spend early weeks close to the barn, encouraging calm temperaments through regular handling and exposure to farm visitors. Their breeding program emphasizes maternal strength and ease of calving, supported by tailored nutrition plans and rotational grazing strategies. The farm began as a modest homestead nearly thirty years ago, preserving a family tradition of nurturing robust, adaptable bloodlines across varying pastures.

Recent judging at local fairs has highlighted their cattle for balanced conformation and gentle disposition under show conditions. Feedback from neighboring ranchers often notes the weanlings’ strong growth rates and steady disposition at sorting and transport.
