The Heart River Cow
no nonsense,
Our mission at Heart River Ranch is to provide the commercial cow-calf producer consistent, sustainable genetics that will allow them to produce no nonsense, no drama, no intervention mother cows and market acceptable steer calves. These genetics would utilize and thrive on the ranch resources of grass and water and provide a return to the producer that allows them to achieve their goals and missions. The end result being a cow herd that has longevity, efficiency and a no maintenance confirmation and where the cow provides for the regeneration of ranch resources for future generations.
The photo's of our cattle are typically taken in late summer or fall. They are in their working clothes and not fed or clipped for a photo. We are not professional photographer's but we do our best to present a true representation of our cattle.
