Little Creek Acres

Little Creek Acres is a Hereford cattle breeder in Sibley, IA, serving northwest Iowa near Sioux City. The operation follows American Hereford Association guidelines with regular genetic screening, vaccination protocols, and record keeping to monitor herd health.

Calves graze on managed pasture rotations and receive daily gentle handling to support steady growth and ease of care. Livestock reside in naturally ventilated barns during wet periods, and fields are rested under a rotational grazing plan to prevent overgrazing. Winter months bring additional hay and windbreak shelter to maintain digestive health and protect the animals from harsh weather. A family-rooted tradition emphasises low-stress management techniques and early socialisation, preparing young cattle for farm work or exhibition. Neighbors often comment on the calm temperament of calves, a testament to the farm’s attention to early gentle handling. Several animals have placed at regional fairs, demonstrating the consistency of breeding goals and the farm’s attention to structural soundness.
