Hoban Miniature Herefords

Hoban Miniature Herefords is a breeder of miniature Hereford cattle in Detroit Lakes, MN, in northwestern Minnesota near Fargo. With over twelve years of experience and membership in the American Hereford Association, the farm follows breed council guidelines and conducts annual genetic and health screening.

Calves graze on rotational pasture and receive daily handling to foster early socialization and calm temperaments. During harsh winters the herd shelters in well-ventilated barns, and in warmer months it roams irrigated paddocks that encourage natural foraging. Several recent offspring have placed at regional fairs, drawing praise for their balanced frame and quiet nature.

The operation emphasizes sustainable grazing practices to preserve soil vitality and support local wildlife. Prospective buyers note comprehensive records of lineage and health history, often commending the herd’s consistency and easy integration. Many reviews mention clear communication from the breeder and ongoing advice on herd management long after animals arrive on their new farms.
