Calves are raised on locally adapted rotational pasture systems, with daily turnout and early handling to foster a calm disposition. A multi-generation farm operation, Smith incorporates soil fertility management and low-stress handling techniques to support strong structure and balanced growth. Each animal benefits from winter shelter and individualized nutrition plans during lactation and growth phases. Selection focuses on longevity, forage efficiency, and calving ease to match local pasture conditions. Long-time buyers mention the calves’ sturdy frames and reliable performance on pasture.
