Cherry Creek Longhorns
Longhorns have been Michael’s passion for years. We had a couple several years ago & sold them when he started caring for his great grandpa’s beef cattle. He inherited those cattle when grandpa passed away so for many years we just ran a small herd of commercial beef cattle. Grandpa’s cattle eventually got old & are no longer with us. Michael wanted his longhorns back so we decided to go with a registered herd this time. Our herd name comes from the creek that originates in our pasture & eventually runs into the Caney River. Most of our cattle are TLBBA registered. Michael plans to saddle break some of the steer calves. We’ll retain all steer calves each year & those that don’t have the temperament to be saddle steers will be raised for beef to feed our family & will likely offer longhorn beef to customers soon. Longhorn beef is leaner than any other red meat & is a much healthier option for those with cholesterol issues that still want a steak. The Longhorns have their own Facebook page & Instagram pages, follow them there for updates. If we have cattle for sale it’ll be noted below their photos.

JD’s first calf crop hit the ground fall of 2024 & we couldn’t be happier with them!

Coco delivered what is likely her 17th calf in January 2025. She’ll be exposed back to JD.
Patsy
“Patsy” Age unknown, Unregistered Cow
Patsy is a sale barn find & she’s absolutely perfect. She’s the sweetest cow on the place. We’re tracking her brand down to see if she’s got papers somewhere.
2M Shelly
“Shelly” 1/2016 TLBBA Cow
Shelly is raising her 2nd steer in a row for us this fall. She’s registered as a mini but is definitely not mini so we’re getting her papers corrected!

Barbara Jean gave us a gorgeous little bull calf this fall by JD. She’s an excellent mother & with that color what’s not to love?

Reba’s horns are just incredible. We were thrilled when she gave us a loud colored heifer by JD in 2024!

We bought this guy from JD’s breeder. He’s a half brother to JD. This guy will be a butcher steer, we bought him for that purpose.

Harry is also from JD’s breeder & is JD’s half brother. This guy will be a butcher steer, we bought him for that purpose.
