Lantrip's Miniature Herefords

Lantrip’s Miniature Herefords, miniature Hereford cattle in Bonne Terre, MO, are in St. Francois County near St. Louis. They are registered with the American Hereford Association and maintain recommended herd health protocols, including genetic screenings and routine vaccinations. With over two decades of experience, they blend heritage genetics with a manageable size. The cattle graze on rotational pastures on the family-run farm, where calves are gently handled from birth to encourage calm behavior. Animals have access to fresh water, mineral blocks and shade structures year-round.

Their breeding program focuses on correct proportions and sound structure, with several animals recognized at local fairs for their temperament and form. Visitors note the attentive care given to each animal and the farm’s welcoming atmosphere. Lantrip’s Miniature Herefords strives to preserve the Hereford’s classic traits in a smaller package, offering cattle suited for both hobby farms and small-scale production.
