Hollow Acres

Hollow Acres raises Shorthorn cattle in Bluffton, Indiana, in Wells County and Northeast Indiana near Fort Wayne. The operation is registered with the American Shorthorn Association and carries out routine genetic screening and veterinary health testing. With over two decades of experience, Lee Pease focuses on sound conformation and calm temperaments. Lee Pease develops the herd on family land, blending heritage lines chosen for durability and maternal instincts.

Cattle are rotated across pasture parcels to promote grazing diversity and receive early handling to encourage gentle behavior. Calving areas feature heated shelters during winter months, and calves join a small group setting for ongoing socialization, while adults have access to a mineral-supplement station year-round for balanced nutrition. Pasture practices support soil regeneration and local biodiversity through carefully planned rotations, reflecting a commitment to environmental stewardship. All breeding stock undergoes annual hoof trimming and parasite control to maintain herd health, and customer feedback often highlights the animals’ consistent growth rates and easygoing temperament.
