John A Tucker

John A Tucker, Hereford cattle, North Platte, NE, is based in Central Nebraska near Grand Island. He maintains his herd under breed association guidelines, with each animal registered and receiving routine health screenings under veterinary supervision. Cattle graze on native grass pastures and access shelter year-round while calves are handled gently from an early age to ensure calm temperaments. Drawing on family farm traditions, Tucker emphasizes balanced nutrition, rotational grazing and open-air living for optimal herd wellness.

Registered calves are raised in small groups to support social behavior and strong maternal instincts. Owners note the cattle’s structural soundness and consistent fertility across seasons. This thoughtful approach produces versatile Hereford stock suitable for both show and ranch operations. He participates in national genetics programs, helps enhance herd quality and preserve bloodlines, and keeps meticulous records on growth rates and breeding outcomes.
