ML Cattle

ML Cattle is a Hereford cattle breeder based in Dalhart, TX, serving ranchers throughout the Texas Panhandle near Amarillo. It is a member of the American Hereford Association and routinely screens breeding stock for known genetic health conditions.

Its cattle graze on open grass pastures and receive daily handling to encourage a calm temperament and straightforward management. Calving takes place in sheltered barns, with individual attention paid to each cow and calf during the first critical weeks. It follows rotational grazing practices to preserve soil health and provide balanced mineral supplementation year-round.

The ranch uses drought-resistant forage mixes adapted to the semi-arid climate of the region. E.S.F. Brainard brings decades of ranching experience, maintaining a hands-on approach to herd selection and pasture rotation. Local ranchers note the gentle disposition, sound structural conformation, and consistent growth patterns of ML Cattle’s calves under attentive care.
