Thomas H Mead Jr

Thomas H Mead Jr breeds Hereford cattle in Midville, GA, serving east central Georgia near Augusta. With more than fifteen years of experience, his operation holds active membership in national cattle associations and adheres to rigorous health testing for BVD, Johne’s disease, brucellosis screening, scrotal measurements, and regular hoof evaluations. Strict record-keeping tracks each animal’s pedigree, growth rates, and veterinary treatments, providing buyers with detailed background on breeding lines.

The herd grazes rotational pastures supplemented with locally milled forage and mineral blends that support steady weight gains across all life stages. Calving occurs in well-ventilated barns where daily gentle handling and early socialization foster confidence and ease transitions to larger herds. Clients frequently note the calves’ calm temperaments, balanced conformation, and robust appetites for quality feed. Ongoing guidance on herd management and nutrition underscores a philosophy that values animal welfare alongside long-term herd health.
