Apple Springs, Texas
D Bar T Ranch

D Bar T Ranch is where the Texas traditions of multi-generational ranching and a history of agriculture and excellence is combined with innovation.  Owners Dante and Terry Lynn McDougald were the first to introduce Black Hereford cattle to Texas.  We intend to be the largest breeder in Texas, producing a legacy with the cattle we love.

We will be participating in the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo in March - we hope to see you there!

D Bar T Black Herefords
  • Low birth weight
  • Exceptional weaning weights
  • Fed a high-quality feed along with alfalfa and hay, averaging a daily weight gain of three pounds
  • Yearling weights in the top 20%
  • Full DNA profile provided to each buyer.  Testing is done by Igenity.  The profile tests:
              - Meat Quality                                                - Heifer Pregnancy Rate
              - Carcass Traits                                              - Maternal Calving Ease
              - Material Traits                                              - Docility
              - Hide Color (homozygous black)
  
We are acutely aware of carcass composition yielding grade, ribeye yielding area, tenderness and marbling qualities.  As a result, our Black Herefords stand out, tending to grade 'choice' and fatten in fewer days on feed - making them more cost-effective cattle.  You can see video here.
