Wakarusa Ridge Ranch

Wakarusa Ridge Ranch is a breeder of Irish kerry cattle in Overbrook, KS in the Flint Hills near Topeka. Clay Adams has been raising these heritage cattle for years and follows breed association guidelines, ensuring each animal carries full registration and health records.

The herd grazes on native pastures with rotational grazing practices and daily handling that supports calm temperaments and easy integration into family herds. Calves are socialized from birth, spending their first weeks close to the farmhouse where they learn to trust handlers.

The ranch’s focus on sustainable land management and gentle husbandry has led to a reputation for well-balanced cattle that thrive in pasture-based settings. Visitors appreciate the ranch’s open layout and the chance to learn about Irish kerry conservation efforts. All breeding stock undergoes routine veterinary screening, including BVD and Johne’s testing, with results available upon request. The ranch participates in the breed’s national registry, and calves arrive with full pedigree paperwork.
