Rockin Z Farms

Rockin Z Farms, Hereford cattle in Donaldsonville, Louisiana, serves Ascension Parish and the River Parishes near Baton Rouge. For years it has maintained health-testing protocols for genetic conditions such as bovine leukocyte adhesion deficiency and follows standards set by the American Hereford Association.

Calves are born in temperature-controlled barns before joining rotational grazing pastures, and daily handling helps develop a calm temperament. The operation includes covered loafing areas, fresh water sources in each paddock and mineral supplementation guided by animal nutritionists. Client reviews often mention the herd’s steady weight gains and friendly disposition.

Operating from a family setting, the farm focuses on low-stress handling, pasture diversity and balanced rations to support lifelong health. Manure is composted on-site and returned to fields to enrich soil and pasture health. Selection focuses on structural soundness and feed efficiency, ensuring each animal performs well in diverse pasture systems.
