Herefords &
Red Angus

Raising high-quality, registered cattle since 1940.

Welcome to the long history of Beery Herefords. Lawrence Beery started in the Hereford business in 1912. Nephew, Newell Beery, walked into the Vida area in the summer of 1929, riding for his uncle there, gathering horses, and working on their ranches. He later settled in 1936 on a half section a half mile from the current ranch headquarters. In 1940, Newell purchased his first set of registered cows. From there on, he always purchased the best registered Hereford range bulls he could afford to use in the program. With that came a reputation for quality Hereford feeder cattle. In the mid-1950s, Newell and his eldest son, Eddy, pursued further into the registered cattle business, purchasing cows locally in Montana and into North Dakota. Beginning in 1970, throughout many years, Newell, Eddy, and family produced and sold quality Hereford genetics even through drought and economics of the 1980s, always with their customers in mind by breeding with honesty, soundness, adaptable, and profitable cattle with the hardiness of living in Eastern Montana. These traits are still prevalent throughout the cattle that the Beerys raise today.
