The Heritage Hereford Advantage
- Miniature Herefords are perfect for small farms
- Smaller animals are easier to handle
- Herefords have a naturally docile and curious temperament, they can be halter trained
- Known as good ‘doers’, they don’t need high grade and expensive pasture and in dry times they keep their condition longer
- They consume less feed than their larger counterparts and produce more beef per hectare
- More animals can be run per hectare making it easier to apply for rural rates so stocking and size is an advantage for small farms
- Smaller hoof size creates less impact on paddocks
- They are easier on fences and infrastructure like yards, where larger herefords can and will jump fences, the heritage animals are easy to contain
- Their efficient feed conversion and grass feed creates healthy Omega 3 filled beef
