Nathan Cole

Nathan Cole, Hereford cattle, Curtis, NE, is located in the Sandhills region near North Platte. He has participated in regional and national breed association events and follows recommended health-screening protocols for genetic and infectious diseases. His cattle graze rotationally on nutrient-rich native grasses and receive balanced feed rations tailored for growth and reproduction.

Calving occurs in a sheltered barn equipped for close observation, soft bedding, and comfort. All calves are gently handled from birth and gradually weaned to reduce stress. Emphasizing the Hereford’s natural maternal instincts and calm temperament, Cole selects breeding pairs for structural soundness. The ranch’s multi-generational ties to Nebraska cattle programs support its commitment to sustainable husbandry, with fenced quarantine paddocks for new arrivals and rotational grazing across native grasslands. Cattle have continual access to natural spring water, mineral blocks and shade under mature cottonwoods, reinforcing both health and comfort.
