MEITLER CATTLE CO. SINCE 1880'S IN NORTH CENTRAL KANSAS
SINCE 1880 LINE BRED HEREFORDS FOR GENERATIONS
Meitler Cattle has been in the family for five generations. August Meitler homesteaded in this area in the 1880's. His son Fred and Grandson Armin Meitler had farmed and raised cattle in this area of north central Kansas for many years. Armin started in the Registered Hereford business in 1932. Armin's son, Gene Meitler continued the line breeding legacy at Meitler Cattle. He passed away in 2020 leaving son's, Darris and Clint Meitler to carry on the traditions of Kansas Cattlemen.
Home of Superior Registered Hereford and Angus Cattle. No other herd in America produces cows like these. No where else can you find this line one "Maternal Core" in the Hereford breed. With depth of pedigree that can and do reproduce themselves consistently. "We found this genetic core 30 years ago. We didn't throw it out with the trash and chase the end of the rainbow.
We kept it and line bred it. While the industry chased fads, we stood fast. Now the industry is searching for what they have lost." - Gene Meitler. See More History Here

Our Catalog for April 12, 2025
We would like to invite you to join us April 12th at 1:00 pm at the ranch for our annual Meitler Maternal Bull and Female Sale. We would like to thank our long-time customers for their belief in our program. To those that may be finding us for the first time, we thank you for your interest and hope you like what you see.
All of the cattle in the sale are home raised and are backed by generations of Meitler maternal Hereford and Angus cattle. We welcome anyone to come visit and see the cattle prior to sale day. Pictures and videos can be viewed at dvauction.com. The cattle will also be on display April 12th. The bulls have all been semen tested and are ready to go to work. We have grown them slowly to insure soundness and longevity. It’s bred in not fed in. What an exciting time to be in the cattle business! With record feeder prices and the expansion of the country’s cowherd set to begin, we believe these bulls can
have tremendous value to you. Whether you plan to keep your own replacement heifers or market them, our bulls will put you in prime position. The steers they sire will also demand a premium at marketing time. The bulls will sell in lot order.
Again, this year we will be offering F-1 black baldy heifer pairs, fall bred black baldy heifers, and open black baldy replacement heifers for sale. These females will add maternal excellence to any cowherd. They will be low input females that are bred to be fantastic momma cows.
Once again, we thank you for your interest in our breeding program and hope to see you April
12th at the ranch.
