Granite City Ranch

Granite City Ranch is a Brahman cattle breeder in Elberton, Georgia, in northeast Georgia near Athens. The ranch has built its reputation on careful herd management and adherence to breed standards, working with breed associations to verify pedigrees, conducting genetic evaluations, and maintaining robust genetics.

Their cattle graze on open pastures with access to covered feeding areas, and health protocols include regular veterinary screenings and vaccination schedules. They emphasize early socialization and low-stress handling to support animal welfare from calfhood through maturity. Detailed records document each animal’s lineage and performance metrics, supporting informed breeding decisions. Their breeding program emphasizes heat tolerance and parasite resistance well suited to Georgia’s climate.
