Jk Schmidt

Jk Schmidt raises Hereford cattle in Mason, TX, serving Mason County and the Texas Hill Country near San Antonio. The operation follows established breed standards and participates in routine health testing through state veterinary partners to ensure the herd’s soundness and longevity. Drawing on ranching roots in the region, the team emphasizes traceability for each animal and maintains detailed records from birth through sale.

Calves are born outdoors on open pasture and receive early handling to encourage calm temperaments while mature cows graze native grasslands through all seasons. The farm’s approach blends time-honored ranching methods with regular herd evaluations and selective breeding for consistency in structure and disposition. Animal comfort is supported by simple shelters, fresh water access, and rotational grazing that preserves pasture health. Jk Schmidt’s dedication to measured practices has earned positive feedback from local feeders and fellow ranchers who note the cattle’s steady growth and gentle nature.
