Mccullough Homestead

Mccullough Homestead raises Normande and crossbred dual purpose homestead cattle in Colorado, Front Range near Denver. Daniel Mccullough has bred these cattle for over a decade, tracking herd health through routine veterinary checks and adhering to guidelines from national breed associations. Their breeding program emphasizes adaptability to high-altitude pastures and robust maternal instincts.

The herd grazes rotationally across open grassland with simple shelter gradually introduced to acclimate calves and ensure even forage use. Winter feeding relies on locally sourced hay balanced with key minerals, while seasonal pasture rotations preserve soil health. Cattle are selected for calm temperament, strong mothering ability and efficient feed conversion in small-scale production.

A restored barn on the original homestead grounds speaks to the farm’s history and ongoing stewardship. Neighbors often remark on the gentle nature of the cattle and their consistent performance in both milk and beef production.
