W Chance Meteer

W Chance Meteer, specializing in Hereford cattle, is based in Benent, IL, in Piatt County and central Illinois near Champaign. The herd is managed with routine health screenings and adherence to recommended vaccination schedules through recognized cattle registries and state livestock programs. Animals graze on rotational pastures and access sheltered loafing areas to encourage natural behavior and steady development. Their care extends to low-stress handling practices and careful pasture rotation to support overall welfare and minimize environmental impact.

This approach blends traditional ranching values with deliberate attention to nutrition and seasonal forage availability throughout the year. The breeding program emphasizes balanced traits for temperament and structural soundness across generations. Farm records highlight consistent calving intervals and uniform weaning weights in recent seasons, reflecting steady herd performance. Buyers often note the calm disposition of calves and reliable growth and finishing performance on pasture.
