Tacoma Cattle Co.

Tacoma Cattle Co., Shorthorn cattle in Ashland, MO, Boone County and the mid-Missouri region near Columbia, raises robust herds. Duane Sicht has managed breeding programs for more than a decade with membership in national cattle associations and annual health screenings for common genetic concerns.

Animals live on pasture with rotational grazing and regular human interaction to encourage calm temperaments and strong growth. Calves are socialized from birth and receive balanced nutrition monitored by routine veterinary checks. Tacoma Cattle Co. draws on its farm heritage to blend time-honored husbandry with careful record-keeping, ensuring reliable lineage and consistent temperament. Their bulls have been selected for state shows and praised for gentle temperaments and consistent muscling across herds.

All stock is raised outdoors year-round with sheltered paddocks, and calves stay with their dams until fully weaned for steady growth. Tacoma Cattle Co. began as a family project and remains family-owned and -operated, reflecting a legacy of careful stewardship.
