Murray Creek Ranch

Murray Creek Ranch, run by John Bartheld in Roy, Washington, has been raising miniature cattle on land with deep agricultural roots since 2004. The farm itself has been family-owned since 1910, with the property transitioning from a dairy operation to its current focus on miniature and small-framed beef cattle — making it one of the longer-established sources for miniature cattle for sale in Washington state.

The herd includes belted Galloway cattle and a range of miniature crosses, among them registered American Belties, Panda cows, Kentshire crosses, and miniature Herefords. The ranch raises cattle suited to small farms and acreage properties, and its approach reflects hands-on experience with Washington's wet climate and the practical land requirements that come with it.

Animals bred at Murray Creek have been shown at events including the Washington State Fair, and the program maintains registered stock across several of its breeds. The ranch operates with roughly one acre per head as a husbandry standard, and calves born on the property are documented individually as part of the operation's ongoing herd management.
