Light Shorthorns

Light Shorthorns, Shorthorn cattle in Prairie Du Chien, WI, is situated in southwestern Wisconsin near La Crosse.
The farm follows registry guidelines and performs regular health screening to maintain sound genetics and herd health.

Luke Light tends the pastures and shelters with a focus on gentle handling and early socialization so calves learn to graze and move with minimal stress. Animals graze on mixed grasses and legumes across rolling hills, and indoor areas are cleaned daily to ensure comfort through all seasons. A few Shorthorn sires carry recognized lineage from national shows, reflecting the farm’s respect for breeding history and steady improvement of maternal traits. Calves are weaned on the farm and raised alongside older cattle to promote herd cohesion. Facilities include open barn stalls and a shaded paddock layout that support cattle comfort and ease of movement. All cattle receive routine vaccinations, hoof trimming and nutritional evaluations by a local veterinarian.
