McClun Polled Herefords

McClun Polled Herefords is a Hereford cattle breeder in Veteran, WY, serving Niobrara County in northeastern Wyoming near Casper.

It raises its Hereford cattle according to guidelines set by the American Hereford Association and maintains routine health evaluations including genetic screening for key traits. Operations began decades ago as a family ranch with a focus on functional beef cattle suited to Wyoming’s varied climate and rolling rangeland. Calves spend early months grazing on native grass pastures with daily handling that builds confidence and ease of management in diverse weather conditions.

Herds calve outdoors in spring with shelter and fresh water available, and they are rotated regularly across pastures to optimize forage and animal welfare. Supplemental feeding includes a balanced mix of certified local hay, minerals and trace nutrients to support growth cycles and reproductive health. Routine veterinary care and meticulous record keeping support a transparent lineage that many appreciate when planning bull selections or herd replacements. Buyers often note the herd’s steady frame and predictable temperament, traits that align with both commercial and small-scale operations.
