Silver Spur Ranches

Silver Spur Ranches, Simmental cattle, Encampment, WY, is set in Carbon County and the Sierra Madre Range near Cheyenne. It has raised Simmental cattle for more than a decade, and owners are members of the Wyoming Cattlemen’s Association, conducting routine health screenings and performance evaluations.

Animals graze on open pastureland with access to sheltered pens, and calves are socialized from birth under attentive care. The ranch traces its roots to settlement-era stockmen, blending traditional grazing methods with modern animal welfare standards and practical genetics selection.

They work closely with local veterinarians and nutritionists to tailor feeding programs throughout changing seasons, ensuring consistent growth rates and sound foot health. Beyond breeding, Silver Spur Ranches supports community events, hosting site visits that highlight ranch life and share insights into cattle stewardship. Seasonal pasture rotation and strict biosecurity measures help maintain herd health year-round.
