Cantagree Milking Shorthorns

Cantagree Milking Shorthorns is a Heritage shorthorn breeder in Mendon, UT, serving Cache County and the Bear River Valley near Logan. With more than a decade of dairy cattle experience, Gene Hiibner works with registered stock and follows industry guidelines for Johne’s and bovine viral diarrhea testing.

Cows graze rotational pastures and move into a well-ventilated barn during colder months, ensuring consistent access to fresh forage and shelter. Calves are handled daily from birth to encourage steady growth and ease transitions to group housing. The herd’s balanced nutrition and low-stress handling help maintain robust udder health and calm temperaments.

Visitors note the farm’s quiet routines and attention to detail when managing milking schedules and breeding records. Animals receive daily observation for early signs of lameness or mastitis, and records are kept to monitor performance across lactations. Breeding choices focus on sound conformation and gentle disposition suitable for small farms and homesteads.
