G-Ma's Mini Herefords

G-Ma's Mini Herefords, Hereford cattle in Dighton, KS, serves southwestern Kansas near Garden City. The small-scale operation combines rotational grazing on native grass pastures with routine veterinary screenings and follows recommended breeding practices to support long-term herd health.

Calves are handled from birth to encourage steady growth and calm temperaments, and mature cows benefit from shelter during extreme weather and free access to mineral-rich salt licks. The ranch has maintained its program for several generations, reflecting a focus on gentle Hereford lines that adapt well to family farms and mixed livestock settings.

Pasture management emphasizes soil health and water conservation, integrating rotational paddocks to reduce stress on pastureland. Animal welfare principles guide each decision, ensuring animals receive attentive care and humane handling throughout their lives. Experience with cattle has guided an ongoing effort to produce balanced conformation and resilient offspring suited for various production goals.
