Shackelford Livestock

Shackelford Livestock, Chianina cattle, Follett, TX, operates in Lipscomb County and the Panhandle near Amarillo. Jordan Jewell leads the program, enrolling each animal in recognized registry programs and following established health-screening protocols. The herd builds on regional ranching traditions rooted in sustainable grazing methods and rotational pasture management.

Cattle are raised outdoors on native prairie with ample space, and daily handling helps foster calm dispositions across the herd. Their approach blends practical husbandry with early socialization and a balanced feeding program, allowing calves to grow accustomed to varied farm routines. Emphasis on genetic diversity and regular hoof care contributes to strong, resilient cattle.

The ranch uses soil conservation practices, rotational grazing rest periods and water management that support pasture health and forage quality. Visitors often note the clear records of lineage, detailed health history and transparent breeding data maintained by the family-run operation.
