Lazy T-Bone Cattle

Lazy T-Bone Cattle, run by J. A. Thomas, raises registered miniature Texas longhorns in Merced, California, in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley roughly 60 miles southeast of Modesto. The operation focuses on animals bred for color, horn development, and reduced frame size, with multi-generational miniature genetics behind its herd.

Bulls and cows are registered with both the TLBAA and the ITLA, and the program has produced animals with show-career records, including stock that has placed at the California State Fair. Horses also play an active role on the property, used for gathering and day-to-day herd management alongside ABCA-registered border collies bred specifically for stock work.

Those looking for Spanish criollo cattle for sale in California may note that Lazy T-Bone's miniature longhorn lines carry the criollo heritage central to the Texas longhorn breed, with selection emphasis placed on vivid hide patterns, long showy horn genetics passed through multiple generations, and animals suited equally to small acreage hobby farms and crossbreeding programs aimed at grass-fed production.
