Orth Limousin Ranch

Orth Limousin Ranch, Limousin cattle, Monte Vista, CO, is located in the San Luis Valley near Alamosa and has been breeding registered Limousin cattle for several years. It participates in national breed associations and follows recommended health screening protocols for fertility, structural soundness and disease prevention. The operation emphasizes transparency and works with veterinarians to monitor herd wellbeing and genetic progress.

Its cattle graze on irrigated pastures at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo range and receive daily handling to promote calm temperaments. Facilities include spacious loafing sheds and access to natural water sources, supporting cow comfort through all seasons. The ranch’s calving season runs from March through May, allowing cows to benefit from fresh spring grass and early growth. Calves often exhibit a gentle nature at weaning, reflecting the ranch’s focus on early socialization. The family-run setting combines traditional ranching values with modern animal husbandry standards.
