Silver Star Ranch

Silver Star Ranch, Spanish criollo cattle, Celina, TX is a family-owned ranch in North Texas near Dallas. It participates in industry health programs and maintains transparent lineage records that reflect the breed’s Spanish heritage. Dave Sullivan tends each animal from birth in open pastures and socializes calves to gentle handling. The ranch follows recommended vaccination schedules and partners with local veterinarians to support herd health.

The cattle graze on native grasses and have access to shelter year-round, helping build hardiness suited to local conditions. With a focus on traditional breeding methods, the ranch preserves traits like foraging efficiency and disease resistance common to criollo heritage stock. Owners often share updates on herd development through photography and local farm visits, giving a window into daily life on the ranch. Periodic guest visits and on-site tours allow potential breeders to assess temperament and conformity to breed standards.
