HND Cattle Company

HND Cattle Company is a breeder of Chianina cattle in West Alexandria, OH, in Preble County near Dayton. Founded in 2008, it maintains registration with the American Chianina Association and follows comprehensive health screening protocols for genetic traits, temperament, and disease prevention.

Animals graze on pastureland framed by shelter belts of native trees, and calves receive daily handling to promote calm temperaments and social confidence. During extreme weather, cattle rest in climate-controlled barns with comfortable bedding and access to fresh water. Owner Elizabeth Napier applies rotational grazing and cover cropping methods that build soil health and encourage on-farm biodiversity.

Years of selective breeding have emphasized structural soundness, robust growth, and efficient feed conversion throughout the herd. Feedback from local buyers highlights the cattle’s sturdy conformation, gentle nature, and reliable performance in various grazing systems. Prospective owners are welcome to schedule a farm visit to observe herd care routines and discuss lineage and management practices.
