Randa Boler-Rummel

Randa Boler-Rummel raises Hereford cattle in Missoula, MT, serving Missoula County and western Montana near Bozeman. With over a decade of careful breeding and active membership in the American Hereford Association, she performs health testing on breeding stock for genetic conditions. Calves are born and raised on rotational pasture, where morning herd checks and gradual handling introduce them to human presence along with herd mates.

Randa’s emphasis on low-stress management contributes to a consistent temperament that local buyers and neighbors often remark on. Herd records track lineage back several generations, ensuring adherence to structural and functional standards valued in both show and commercial cattle. Seasonal herd health plans include annual vaccinations and nutrition adjustments to match changing pasture quality. Conservation-minded practices such as rotational grazing and native grass restoration support long-term pasture health and local ecosystems. Natural calving support ensures minimal intervention unless health issues arise, reflecting a hands-on approach to animal welfare.
