Taylor Sinkie

Taylor Sinkie, Hereford cattle, Gann Valley, SD, is a family-run breeder operating on more than a hundred acres in Buffalo County near Pierre. The operation has raised Hereford cattle for over a decade, maintaining bloodlines registered with the American Hereford Association, conducting annual veterinary screenings and following recommended vaccination and disease testing protocols.

Cattle graze on native prairie pastures and have access to shelters designed for northern climates. Year-round access to fresh water from a spring-fed creek supports hydration in hot summers and freezing winters. Rotational grazing across multiple paddocks helps maintain pasture health and reduces parasite load. Calves are handled gently from birth to encourage ease of handling and early socialization. The farm, situated on family-owned land, reflects a commitment to low-stress animal care, something local visitors often note in their feedback. This approach has resulted in Hereford cattle noted for steady temperaments and strong maternal instincts.
