Lizard Rock Farm

Lizard Rock Farm raises Wagyu cattle in Petersburg, TN, Southern Tennessee near Nashville. Robert Crane has raised Wagyu cattle for several years, maintaining registrations with national breed associations and conducting routine health screening to monitor genetic strengths.

The herd grazes on mixed grass pastures set along gentle hills, and daily handling ensures the calves develop confidence around people. Calves receive early supplement feeding to support steady growth without stress. Ultrasound scanning helps guide breeding decisions to maintain high standards of marble quality.

Attention to selective sire selection and monitoring of marbling scores has earned the farm recognition among local chefs. Visitors note the calm temperament of the cattle and the farm’s thoughtful approach to breeding and land stewardship. Housed on a family-owned property, the operation blends traditional ranching with pasture rotation and soil health practices for nutrient-rich forage year-round.
