Hornung Red Angus

Hornung Red Angus is a Red Angus cattle operation in Richland County, Wisconsin, near Madison. The family-run herd is managed by Andy and Alisa Hornung, who have been raising Red Angus since the early 2000s with registration through national breed associations and routine genetic health screenings.

Each animal roams on rotational pasture designed for forage diversity, with access to shelter barns and clean water sources year-round to support steady growth and well-being. Calves are introduced to gentle handling early, helping them adapt calmly to loading chutes and handling facilities. The Hornung family traces its ranching roots back three generations, maintaining a modest herd size to ensure close oversight and individualized care.

Registered females undergo ultrasound evaluations before each breeding season to support consistent calving intervals. Their breeding program emphasizes balanced frame size and marbling scores, providing cattle suited for small-scale homesteads and local premium producers. Several offspring have earned recognition at regional livestock shows for their structural soundness and temperament.
