Rafter Lazy K Herefords

Rafter Lazy K Herefords raises Hereford cattle in Pocatello, ID, serving southeastern Idaho near Idaho Falls. With more than a decade in the industry, it follows American Hereford Association guidelines and prioritizes performance-tested bloodlines and genetic evaluations.

The farm uses rotational grazing and shade shelters to support natural behaviors and maintain grassland health. Its focus on balanced traits has led to cattle that earn consistent placings at county fairs and complement both beef and breeding operations. The breeder also shares insights at community livestock events to support regional producers. Owners maintain open lines of communication through phone consultations and occasional farm visits, reflecting a commitment to long-term partnerships.
