Mini Moo Ranch

Mini Moo Ranch, cattle in North Florida near Jacksonville, FL, raises herds with attentive care. The ranch follows industry health-testing protocols and maintains small herd sizes so each animal receives regular hands-on monitoring. Calves are introduced to daily handling routines from an early age and graze on open pastures enriched by rotational grazing practices.

The family-run operation emphasizes pasture health and water quality, with sturdy shelters designed to protect livestock during seasonal storms. Owner Kellie Yagel draws on a background in agricultural sciences to refine feeding strategies and enhance overall herd well-being. Focused on sustainable land management, the ranch rotates cattle across mixed forage fields and integrates cover crops to support soil resilience. Supplemental feed includes locally sourced hay and custom mineral mixes to support growth and, when applicable, lactation. Visitors often note the animals’ calm temperaments and the team’s respect for environmental stewardship.
