Heath Lee

Heath Lee raises Hereford cattle in Perkinston, MS, Stone County and the Gulf Coast near Biloxi. He has been managing this operation for more than a decade and follows industry-recommended health screenings in partnership with a local veterinarian. His cattle graze rotationally on coastal pastures and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments.

Lee emphasizes balanced conformation and temperament, selecting stock that thrives in humid conditions and adapts easily to new environments. Calves are socialized early with hands-on exposure to equipment and people, supporting their development and ease of management. Records are kept for each animal’s growth and breeding performance to inform selection decisions and maintain herd consistency. The operation reflects Mississippi ranching heritage with a focus on pasture health and sustainable practices. Lee monitors soil and forage quality to maintain nutrient-rich grazing and supports a low-stress environment year round.
