Hicks Polled Herefords

Hicks Polled Herefords is a Hereford breeder in Nashville, Arkansas, Howard County and the Arkansas Timberlands near Texarkana. Its herd includes registered Hereford cattle recognized by the American Hereford Association, and the operation emphasizes regular veterinary health checks and genetic screening.

Cattle graze on open pastures under pasture rotation, with access to covered shelters during inclement weather, and calves are introduced to gentle handling early to support their development. The farm’s multigenerational roots in southwest Arkansas shape a hands-on approach, and its consistency in breeding sound cattle has been noted by local beef producers. Feed programs combine locally sourced forage with supplemental minerals to maintain herd nutrition year-round.

Periodic facility tours and open farm days allow buyers to observe handling practices and animal health in person. Despite its rural setting, the farm maintains detailed records on lineage, health treatments and performance metrics, ensuring transparency for cattle purchasers.
