Libby Rushton

Libby Rushton in Waverly, TN raises Hereford cattle in Humphreys County in Middle Tennessee near Nashville. She follows breed health guidelines, ensuring regular genetic and performance evaluations through recognized registry programs.

All cattle graze on managed pasture with access to shade, creek water and daily herd checks to maintain strong herd health and gentle temperaments. The program emphasizes balanced structure and muscle development, drawing on family farm traditions that date back generations. Pedigree records guide selective pairings, focusing on structural soundness, growth rates and adaptability to local climate conditions.

Routine veterinary visits and hoof trimming support animal welfare, while calves remain with dams until weaning to promote natural maternal bonding. This careful approach helps the herd develop consistent quality and temperament valued by both small-scale and established livestock operations. Prospective buyers often note friendly dispositions and well-muscled lines suited to both beef production and grassroots show circuits.
