Lobato Show Cattle

Lobato Show Cattle, Hereford, Monte Vista, CO, is based in the San Luis Valley near Alamosa. Over fifteen years of registered breeding with the American Hereford Association reflect the ranch’s ongoing attention to genetic health and temperament.

Cattle are raised on open pastures with sheltering barns, and daily routines include gentle handling and early socialization for each calf. The owners maintain complete health records, including prenatal screenings and routine checkups by a local veterinarian. A reputation for calm dispositions and well-muscled frames has drawn interest from show circuits and family farms alike.

Pasture rotation is planned to support soil health and provide fresh forage year-round, and calves live alongside their mothers until weaning to ensure steady growth. Quality feed is sourced from local growers and adjusted seasonally to match nutritional needs, which helps maintain consistent weight gains. Community support includes hosting occasional farm visits and sharing insights at county events.
