Y Bar Ranch Co.

Y Bar Ranch Co., Hereford cattle, Ozona, TX, West Texas near San Angelo. Gary and Patricia Schneider have raised Hereford cattle for several years, following American Hereford Association guidelines and conducting regular veterinary health screenings.

Their herd roams rotational pastures of native grasses, with access to clean water from on-site wells and shelter designed for both summer heat and winter cold fronts. The Schneiders oversee calving in a dedicated barn area, offering individual assistance and early socialization that supports calf health and future handling. Sustainable grazing and soil-restoration practices at the ranch help maintain ecological balance and contribute to consistent breed traits.

Local advisors in Crockett County value the ranch’s transparent record-keeping and environmental stewardship. They share breeding insights with regional youth livestock programs, fostering the next generation of ranchers. The Schneiders balance traditional family ranching with modern husbandry methods to produce cattle known for calm dispositions and solid conformation.
