Schultz Bros Cattle Co

Schultz Bros Cattle Co, Shorthorn cattle, Ogden, IA, maintains a herd for Boone County and the Des Moines area. It is operated by Mark Schultz, drawing on more than twelve years of breeding experience and following American Shorthorn Association protocols.

The herd benefits from rotational grazing on native pastures, and calves are introduced to handling early to promote calm behavior. Each animal undergoes regular health screenings for fertility and genetic soundness. A climate-controlled facility and spacious paddocks support social herd dynamics, with shading and shelter available year-round. Recent feedback highlights consistent temperament and sound structure, reflecting a focus on maternal traits that suit both commercial and family farms. Calving ease and adaptability to varied pasture conditions are priorities, resulting in low intervention rates and steady herd growth. Education and outreach events on the farm occasionally welcome nearby breeders and enthusiasts for pasture tours and calf care demonstrations.
