Will Echols

Will Echols breeds Hereford cattle in Breckenridge, TX, in North Texas near Fort Worth. With more than two decades of experience and membership in the American Hereford Association, he follows a health-testing protocol that includes regular veterinary checks and genetic screening. Calves are raised on open pastures with ample space to roam and graze, complemented by a grain supplementation program tailored to individual growth stages.

All animals are handled daily from birth to promote gentle temperaments, and he oversees controlled social grouping to ensure cohesive herd dynamics. His farm’s roots date back to his grandfather’s establishment in the 1950s, and continuing that legacy means attention to soil health and rotational grazing. Recent buyers have noted the consistent frame and calm disposition of these cattle under working conditions.

Each spring brings a structured breeding season focused on maternal traits and longevity, using performance data to guide pairings. Prospective buyers appreciate the transparency of production records, which are available during farm visits and verified by independent auditors.
