Kelly Daniels

Kelly Daniels raises Hereford cattle in Malad City, ID, in southeastern Idaho near Pocatello. With years of dedication, Daniels participates in the American Hereford Association registry and follows routine health screening to maintain strong, disease-free breeding lines. The cattle graze on irrigated pastures and receive daily interaction, a practice that helps develop calm temperaments and familiarizes them with farm equipment.

Now in its second generation, the operation retains a family-focused approach to herd management, emphasizing maternal strength and easy calving. Many customers note the gentle nature of the calves, which can adapt smoothly to varied environments. During winter, the herd moves to sheltered corrals where supplemental hay from nearby farms supports steady weight gain.

Daniels also hosts occasional farm visits to share breeding insights and introduce visitors to ongoing selection for structural soundness. Community engagement at local agricultural fairs underscores a commitment to transparency and long-term herd improvement.
