Parnell Ranch

Parnell Ranch, a wagyu cattle operation in Canadian, TX, is nestled in the Texas Panhandle near Amarillo. With more than a decade of breeding wagyu cattle and membership in the American Wagyu Association, the ranch ensures all breeding stock undergoes genetic health screening and regular veterinary evaluations.

The cattle graze on open prairie paddocks and follow a rotational grazing system designed to support natural foraging and stress-free handling. Calves are raised alongside their mothers in family groups before weaning and have early access to shade shelters and mineral-rich supplements.

Parnell Ranch balances traditional ranching methods with modern data tracking for feeding and growth, and local beef enthusiasts often note the tender texture and rich flavor profile. A grain finishing program with locally sourced corn complements pasture forage in the final months before harvest. Prospective buyers often visit the ranch to observe herd health and pasture rotations firsthand.
