Mk Ranch Co

Mk Ranch Co is a Hereford cattle breeder in Rotan, TX, in the Rolling Plains region near Abilene, raising stock for maternal strength, structural soundness, and efficient growth. The ranch follows established health protocols, including routine vaccinations, tailored nutritional programs, and regular veterinary evaluations to ensure cows and calves thrive. Herds graze year-round on native grasses and are rotated across carefully managed pastures that promote biodiversity, forage quality, and sound hoof health.

Calves receive early low-stress handling that acquaints them with equipment and encourages steady weight gain alongside temperament development. Breeding decisions rely on performance records, visual appraisal, and EPD insights to preserve traits such as calving ease, fertility, and carcass consistency. Generations of ranchers have fine-tuned this program to deliver cattle known for uniformity at weaning and adaptability to diverse feeding systems. A regional feedlot manager commented on the uniformity and feed efficiency of the calves, reflecting the ranch’s long-term focus on genetics and animal welfare.
