Stephanie Boyles

Stephanie Boyles, Pineywoods cattle breeder in Covington, LA, is based in St. Tammany Parish near New Orleans. She has been raising Pineywoods cattle for several years and follows breed association guidelines with regular veterinary health checks.

The herd grazes on native pasture with rotational practices to support soil health and natural foraging behavior. Calves are handled from birth to encourage social interaction and a calm temperament, which customers note when integrating new animals. Her small-scale approach ensures careful record keeping and dedicated attention to each animal’s welfare, helping to preserve genetic diversity within the herd.

Seasonal grazing rotations align with native grass growth cycles, providing a balanced diet year-round without heavy reliance on supplemental feed. Her farm combines traditional Southern ranching methods and modern stewardship, reflecting a steady commitment to heritage livestock conservation. Local landowners appreciate the adaptability and gentle nature of Pineywoods cattle across seasonal changes.
