Shupp Hill Farms

Shupp Hill Farms, Dexter cattle, Tunkhannock, Pennsylvania, is a family-run breeder located in Wyoming County and the Endless Mountains near Scranton. Corey Read and Esther Read have over a decade of experience breeding Dexters and hold membership in the American Dexter Cattle Association, with all animals undergoing regular herd health checks and genetic screening.

Their herd grazes on pasture year-round, using rotational grazing to support animal welfare and maintain soil health. Calves are raised in small cohorts from birth, encouraging early socialization and ease of handling for future owners.

The farm’s bloodlines are selected for docility, efficiency and adaptability on mixed farming operations. Customers often remark on consistent temperament and robust health among the cattle. During winter months cattle shelter in ventilated barns with ample bedding to ensure comfort in colder weather. The farm combines sustainable practices with hands-on care, reflecting its roots as a former dairy operation.
