Logan Mcfatridge

Logan Mcfatridge, Hereford cattle, Otterbein, IN in northwestern Indiana near Lafayette. Logan Mcfatridge has been breeding for several years and maintains membership in the American Hereford Association, following recommended screening and genetic testing. The farm's herd grazes rotationally on open pastures with access to sheltered loafing areas, while calves benefit from regular handling to foster calm temperaments. The operation partners with a local veterinarian for routine wellness checks and follows a structured weaning program at around eight months to promote steady growth.

Each season the farm selects replacement heifers based on maternal ability, structural soundness and feed efficiency to maintain herd quality. A recent review highlighted the consistent growth rates and gentle disposition of the cattle. As a family-run operation, the farm balances traditional husbandry with targeted nutrition and collaborates with local 4-H clubs to share practical breeding insights and support youth livestock education. The quiet herd temperament suits both small farms and larger operations.
