From the Pasture with Hired Hand

We recently spoke with Kory from Wayment Longhorns. We learned why they purchased Longhorns, some of his favorite animals, and so much more. Wayment's are a small family owned and operated farm nestled at the base of the Rocky Mountains in Northern Utah. They purchased their first Registered Texas Longhorn in the Winter of 2019….and have been hooked ever since! With just under 100 acres they...

Raising Registered Texas Longhorns was a pipe dream we thought was just out of reach for us. We would talk about owning a big longhorn farm as we lived on .2 acre in a neighborhood house in the suburbs. In 2021 we finally decide it was time to give it a shot. We built our house, grew our family by 2 boys and took a chance on making our dream a reality. We couldn’t be more excited to join the longh...

RC Larson Longhorns began their journey with Longhorn cattle in 2000 as a lawn ornament. We enjoyed watching our new little herd. We had no goals in mind at the time. Bob's history as a dairyman in Tillamook County brought an abundance of knowledge to raising cattle. We immediately began an artificial insemination program. In 2005 we began our embryo program beginning with conventional flushe...

Diamond B Ranch was founded like many other programs in the industry, for the love of beautiful longhorns. We all know that a single longhorn in the pasture multiplies quickly, and for us, that first longhorn turned into a passion. Soon, a few head built a large herd and became a working ranch. We are located in the heart of the Texas Panhandle; while the grass is not always greener here, it is nu...

Rienhardt Ranch & Why-Am-I Cattle Co. was established in the summer of 2021 when the family decided they would like to pursue cattle again. The foundation herd started with four animals from Gainesville, Texas, and has been continuously expanding since. A family affair, each family member has played a significant role in the success of the ranch. Whether it be traveling, physical labor, runnin...

The Might As Well Ranch gets its name from the well thought out plan that started this venture. We decided that we would buy a couple of calves for the boys. It would be good for them to learn some responsibility and may be a way for them to make a little money selling calves. Here is where the Might As Well comes in. If you have to build fence, buy supplies and take care of two of them, might as...

Nestled in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, Arroyo Blanco Ranch was established in 2015. We are fortunate to have the opportunity to be stewards of this land and we seek to honor the heritage of those who lived and worked to build and preserve it. Longhorn cattle are a fundamental piece of that heritage. We acquired our first registered longhorn cows in 2019 and haven’t looked back since then!...

The idea of RP3 Cattle Co started when I purchased the property to build a house and raise my two boys on open land outside of a traditional neighborhood. My goal for the business even though it's part time and more of a hobby is to breed the best conformationally correct Texas longhorn we can. Yes, we want the “Long” Horns but we also want the animal to be correct and serve a purpose that is...
