Thunderhead Ranch

Thunderhead Ranch, Simmental cattle, Dubois, WY, serves Fremont County and the Wind River Valley near Jackson. The ranch has been breeding Simmental cattle for over 15 years, holds membership in the American Simmental Association, and conducts regular health screenings for calving ease and genetic soundness.

Calves are introduced to daily handling shortly after birth, and winter months include sheltered housing in a well-ventilated barn. Animals graze native grass pastures under a rotational grazing plan and are handled daily to promote calm, steady temperaments. Detailed pedigree records are maintained for every animal, allowing buyers to review lineage and breeding decisions.

The herd includes bloodlines known for strong maternal traits and efficient feed conversion, traits carefully tested over each generation. As a family operation, its focus on docile disposition and consistent weight gain makes its cattle valued as breeding stock across Wyoming. Thunderhead Ranch works closely with local veterinarians and emphasizes low-stress handling and pasture-based husbandry.
