Our Cow Herd

At the heart of Trapped In Time Miniature Herefords is a powerful set of females that serve as the backbone of our program. Our cow herd is built on consistency, longevity, and maternal excellence with genetics that combine traditional Miniature Hereford style with modern functionality.

Many of our cows trace back to Glory Farms and Splitt Creek Ranch, including our very first heifer, GF Trapped In September, and several of her female descendants. These cows have set the tone for our breeding philosophy: calm dispositions, sound structure, and dependable maternal traits.

We emphasize cows that are:

  • Easy-calving and efficient

  • Excellent mothers with strong udders

  • Structurally correct with strong feet and legs

  • Deep-bodied and well-balanced in their frame

Each female in our herd has been carefully selected and managed to ensure she contributes meaningfully to the next generation. Whether it’s raising a standout show prospect or producing a consistent calf crop year after year, our cows embody the reliability and quality we strive for.

Our cow herd isn't just the foundation of our ranch—it's the living proof of our commitment to preserving and improving the Miniature Hereford breed in South Texas and beyond.

Our Sires

At Trapped In Time Miniature Herefords, we believe that the right sire can elevate an entire breeding program. That’s why we carefully select and utilize bulls that bring structural integrity, breed character, and genetic value to every calf crop.

Our sires are chosen with the following priorities in mind:

  • Strong Pedigrees – Backed by proven genetics that are consistent and respected within the breed.

  • Structural Soundness – Correct on their feet and legs, with balanced frames and strong toplines.

  • Docile Disposition – Calm and manageable, especially important for youth exhibitors and hands-on families.

  • Breed Improvement – Focused on enhancing maternal traits, muscle expression, and show ring appeal without sacrificing function.

We use a combination of herd bulls and select AI sires that align with our program’s goals. Each bull is matched with females to complement their strengths and move our herd forward with every generation.

The results speak for themselves, our calves consistently demonstrate eye appeal, correctness, and calm temperaments, making them ideal for both the pasture and the show ring.

We are proud to stand behind the sires we use, and we welcome inquiries about our breeding decisions and upcoming calf crops.
