Hornung Show Cattle

Hornung Show Cattle raises Chianina cattle in Hubbard, Iowa, in Hardin County and central Iowa near Des Moines. Troy Hornung follows registry guidelines and ensures all breeding stock undergoes genetic and veterinary health screenings common to Chianina cattle programs. It maintains registration with national breed associations and participates in breed-specific performance evaluations to track growth and fertility.

The cattle graze on a mix of native grasses and hay, with free access to fresh water and shelter that fosters healthy development and resilience. Daily handling and calving management emphasize low-stress techniques, helping young animals grow with steady socialization and predictable routines. Facilities include open barns, rotational pasture systems and covered loafing areas to support natural behaviors and ease of care.

Troy’s Chianina lines have placed in regional shows for structural balance and gentle dispositions, reflecting a blend of tradition and careful selection. The farm’s roots in family agriculture and community fair involvement lend a caring environment where each animal’s welfare shapes breeding decisions.
