Lacroix Cattle

Lacroix Cattle, Shorthorn cattle in Kimbolton, OH, operates in Guernsey County and the Appalachian Plateau near Zanesville. Ryan Lacroix and Amanda Lacroix follow American Shorthorn Association standards, conduct routine veterinary checks and genetic screening, and participate in regional breeder workshops. Their herd grazes on pasture rotated seasonally to promote healthy growth, and calves are gently handled from birth to build calm temperaments and strong social bonds. Their approach blends pasture-based husbandry with soil regeneration techniques on quiet rolling fields, aiming to support biodiversity and forage quality year round.

Some animals have been recognized at county fairs for structure and gentle disposition. Prospective owners receive regular updates on herd health and seasonal care guidance. The Lacroixes prioritize pasture diversity to enhance nutrition and resilience in all seasons. Set on family land that has hosted livestock for generations, the operation reflects a balance of tradition and practical innovation.
