Naylor'S Shorthorns

Naylor’S Shorthorns is a shorthorn operation in Buffalo, MO, serving Dallas County and central Missouri near Springfield. The operation follows guidelines from the American Shorthorn Association and maintains health testing protocols for fertility and temperament. Calves are raised on open pasture with access to shade and fresh water, and daily handling supports calm dispositions and easy integration into various herd environments.

The farm has been managed by members of the Naylor family for over three decades, and their approach balances genetic selection with natural foraging habits. Emphasis on maternal strength and balanced frame produces steers and heifers that perform reliably in commercial settings. Proximity to local feed analyses and veterinary support in Springfield helps ensure herd health and steady growth from birth to market readiness. Smaller herd sizes allow individual attention and detailed record keeping, contributing to consistent quality across each annual calf crop.
