Lesley Ranch

Lesley Ranch, Hereford cattle in Stephenville, TX, are based in Erath County and the Dallas–Fort Worth area near Stephenville. Mark and Teresa McClintock have raised Hereford cattle for several years and maintain registration with the American Hereford Association to support herd health and traceability. Their breeding program includes regular veterinary examinations, parasite control protocols, and genetic testing to ensure sound structure and temperament.

The cattle graze on rotational pastures with access to shelter barns, and calves are introduced to routine handling early in life to encourage calm dispositions. Family-run operations and hands-on care guide every stage from calving to weaning, reflecting the ranch’s commitment to traditional husbandry. Visitors often comment on the herd’s even temperaments and consistency in frame and muscle development. Each year the ranch participates in local livestock shows, helping fine-tune selection for structural soundness and balanced growth.
