Brian Goettemoeller

Brian Goettemoeller breeds Chianina cattle in Winchester, IN, Randolph County and east-central Indiana near Indianapolis. He is a member of the American Chianina Association and follows recommended health screenings for each animal. His cattle graze on rotational pastures rich in native grasses, while calves are socialized from birth through daily handling and exposure to farm equipment in low-stress environments.

The herd is selected for robust muscling and a calm temperament that suits diverse farm settings. Animals are raised in open-air barns with access to fresh water, trace mineral supplements, and seasonal forage, reflecting a focus on balanced nutrition and animal welfare. Facilities include shaded loafing areas and winter shelters, and routine veterinary visits with foot-trimming schedules support seasonal needs and long-term herd performance. Over the years the farm has built a reputation for consistent quality and stable genetics among local breeders.
