Jared Cluxton

Jared Cluxton, Chianina cattle, Ripley, OH, raises his herd in southwestern Ohio near Cincinnati. He is a member of national cattle breeder associations and follows industry standards for fertility screening, structural soundness assessments, and calf vitality checks. His breeding approach balances conformation and temperament, with records kept through certified pedigree documentation to support long-term herd health and performance.

Animals graze on pasture land carved from rolling farmland along the Ohio River valley, rotating through grass and legume fields each season to maintain soil and forage quality. Herd sires and cows receive individual handling from birth through mature breeding, which encourages early socialization and a calm disposition during routine health visits and loading. Calving takes place in sheltered paddocks with close monitoring and nutritious, locally sourced hay and grain for new mothers. Nutritional plan includes locally sourced hay and grain, seasonal vitamin-enriched mineral supplements and fresh water.

Cluxton’s farm has provided well-matched cattle for both show and commercial operations for generations. His focus on sound structure and balanced growth has earned praise from local ranchers who value steady weight gain and ease of management.
