J2N Livestock

J2N Livestock, Miniature hereford cattle, Carrington ND in north-central North Dakota near Fargo. Matthew Davis has been breeding these cattle for several years and participates in breed registry programs while maintaining routine genetic health screenings. The herd is registered with the American Hereford Association and undergoes annual veterinary inspections.

Their calves are raised on open pasture with sustainable grazing rotations and socialized from birth in a family setting that emphasizes gentle handling and herd cohesion. Based on a family-run prairie homestead, the operation combines traditional livestock management with modern care standards. Several of their heifers have placed at county fairs and attracted praise from local ranchers for their sound structure, calm temperament, and adaptability to small-scale farming. Their cattle adapt well to cold winters and hot summers typical of the northern plains. They offer farm visits to local schools and support educational programs on sustainable livestock care.
