Mlk Herefords

Mlk Herefords breeds Hereford cattle in Albia, IA, in Monroe County near Des Moines. With more than a decade of experience, it holds registrations through the American Hereford Association and follows recommended genetic and health screenings for traits like parasite resistance and calving ease.

Calves are raised on pasture access with rotational grazing and regular handling to encourage calm temperaments and ease of management. The herd shares a spacious barn with individual pens for mothers and newborns to ensure attentive care through early bonding. A recent customer noted steady weight gains and gentle dispositions among young stock offered for sale, reflecting the farm’s focus on balanced growth and animal welfare. The family-run operation follows a grass-first feeding program supplemented with locally milled grains to support health and coat quality. Some herd sires carry bloodlines traced to national show champions, offering breeding prospects for moderate-framed cattle suited to diverse climates.
