White Cattle Company started in 2004, but its legacy dates back to the late 1800's when Benjamin White, a lawyer, inherited one-half of the family ranch in Eagle, Colorado from his mother. Ben White's son Morton started putting together a small herd of registered Hereford cattle of his own. In 1970, Mort and his son, Butch, bought a ranch in Southwest Wyoming and continued under the new name of Mo
rt White and Son (later changing the name to White Herefords) having annual bull sales until 1998. Utilizing herd bulls purchased from Cooper and Holden in Montana, Pruett Wray in Arizona, Beibers in South Dakota, along with reputable breeders in both Nebraska & Wyoming enabled the ranch to offer high quality registered bulls and heifers in their annual sale. In 2000, Butch and Jody and son Coby along with his wife Cora moved from Wyoming to the Nebraska Sandhills and became White Ranch, running a commercial herd of Hereford, black, and black baldy cows. Joel White and his wife, Karri, continue the purebred Hereford tradition in Buffalo, Wyoming. Their children Brian and Lauren are the fifth generation of Hereford breeders. White Cattle Company raises premier bulls and heifers, focusing on maternal and structural correctness traits. Along with Herefords we also market club calves and Red Angus seed stock.
