Whitney Walker

Whitney Walker breeds Shorthorn cattle in Prairie Grove, AR in Northwest Arkansas near Fayetteville. Walker participates in the American Shorthorn Association and follows a health-testing routine that includes quarterly veterinary checkups and genetic screening for common bovine conditions.

Their cattle graze on pastureland with open-faced barns and daily guided handling, fostering early socialization and calm temperaments. Walker uses rotational grazing to maintain soil health and natural forage variety, while providing supplemental minerals through free-choice feeders. Each calf receives individual attention from birth to weaning, ensuring a smooth transition to customer farms and community events. Walker emphasizes low-stress handling to promote calm behavior and build trust in each herd member.

The herd includes several naturally colored individuals noted for strong maternal instincts and longevity, reflecting Walker’s preference for functional traits alongside breed standards. Buyers appreciate access to detailed birth records, lineage certificates and transparent health clearances.
