Hamann Farms

Hamann Farms raises Chianina cattle in Crown Point, IN, in Lake County and Northwest Indiana near Chicago. Andrew Hamann has bred registered Chianina cattle for over ten years, following American Chianina Association health testing standards to maintain genetic integrity. The herd grazes on rotational pastures supplemented with hay and trace minerals, and every animal receives daily handling to build confidence and ease around people. Cattle are sheltered in ventilated barns at night and moved between paddocks to support natural behaviors and reduce stress.

Operating from a multi-generation farmstead, Hamann Farms combines traditional cattle husbandry with modern record keeping to track performance traits such as growth rate and calving ease. Guests describe the cattle’s gentle disposition and uniform conformation during local fairs and farm tours, noting both temperament and sound structure. Soil health is a priority, with rotational grazing enhancing pasture recovery and biodiversity across fenced paddocks. All breeding stock undergoes routine veterinary evaluations and receive balanced rations formulated for optimal reproductive performance.
