Wegenhoft Ranch LLC

Wegenhoft Ranch LLC, registered Hereford cattle, Columbus, Texas, serves Colorado County and the Gulf Coast region near Houston. They follow American Hereford Association guidelines and conduct routine genetic and health screenings to maintain strong bloodlines. The family-run ranch has upheld traditional breeding practices for three decades with an emphasis on resilience and gentle temperaments.

Cattle graze rotating pastures, receive supplemental hay in winter and have access to fresh water round the clock. Daily handling routines help calves grow accustomed to people and support calm behavior during handling. The current proprietors represent the third generation to steward these lands, blending time-honored methods with modern animal welfare standards.

Calves stay with their mothers in open fields, allowing early socialization that supports herd cohesion and individual health. Visitors often note the ranch’s welcoming atmosphere and the team’s strong dedication to sustainable land stewardship.
