Heather A Thomas

Heather A Thomas raises Hereford cattle in Gold Creek, MT, western Montana near Missoula. She brings extensive breeding experience to this family-run operation and is a member of the American Hereford Association, following recommended health screenings, genetic evaluations and performance tracking.

Her cattle graze on open, grassy pastures across rolling fields, with access to year-round shelter, and calves are gently socialized alongside the herd to encourage calm temperaments. Routine herd check-ups include vaccinations, parasite control and nutritional assessments overseen by a local veterinarian. The farm’s emphasis on low-stress handling and rotational grazing supports cattle health and soil conservation. A carefully planned breeding schedule aligns calving with the spring grass flush, supporting both animal health and pasture recovery.

Clients appreciate her detailed record keeping and the consistent quality of animals suited for ranchers and small acreage operations. Her herd features cattle known for strong maternal instincts and well-marbled beef.
