Sl Shorthorn

Sl Shorthorn breeds purebred heritage Shorthorn cattle in Braddock, ND, in central North Dakota near Bismarck. Sam participates in national Shorthorn registry programs, follows recommended health screening for genetic conditions, and maintains detailed records on lineage, performance and calving. Their cattle graze on rotated pastures adjacent to the farmstead, have access to sheltered loafing areas and fresh water year-round, and are handled daily to build calm dispositions.

The operation combines modern animal welfare standards with ranch traditions maintained across generations on this working cattle farm. Attention to structural soundness and temperament has led several of their steers to place well at county and regional livestock shows. Feed is sourced from the farm’s own alfalfa and grass hay fields to ensure consistent nutrition. Visitors often note the clean barns and relaxed animals during farm tours.
