Henderson Genetics

Henderson Genetics raises Chianina cattle in Alger, OH, serving Northwest Ohio near Toledo. With over a decade of breeding experience, Cody Henderson is a member of the American Chianina Association and follows recommended genetic and health screenings.

Their animals are raised on rotational pasture to support natural growth and are handled daily to encourage calm temperaments. Regular hoof care and nutrition plans are tailored to each animal’s needs, and calves spend early weeks bonding with their mothers in open shelters. All cattle undergo routine veterinary evaluations and vaccinations aligned with industry standards.

Several herd sires hold registry recognition for their structural soundness, and Henderson Genetics has worked with local fair programs to introduce young farmers to quality breeding stock. The farm’s layout includes shaded loafing areas and secure fencing designed for both safety and comfort. Their approach balances traditional farm values with an emphasis on animal welfare.
