Welcome to Broken Box Ranch: feedlot division.  Our modern 3500-head feedlot has been designed to handle cattle in the summer and winter.  Our pens vary in size from 100’ x 250’ to 150’ x 250’, with mounds in each pen, cement aprons at the feed bunks, with .04 tenths/100’ slope to aid in drainage during the winter.  Construction is all steel, cable, and cement.  Cattle are bedded down during the rainy season with rice straw.  Our covered working facilities allow the handling of your cattle with the least amount of stress.  Our Tru-Test scale system has both group weight and individual chute weight capacity.  Cattle are fed twice daily and a pen rider observes the cattle daily. We also offer a heifer development program, including artificial insemination and/or natural breeding. 
 

Our feedlot manager is Davin Lower.  He is a California State University, Chico graduate, did his internship at Deseret Cattle.  Davin will oversee the feeding and treatment of your cattle, and is always available to consult with you at any time.  Our nutritionist, Wes Schager M.S., develops our rations depending on the type of feeding program requested by the customer.  Our consulting veterinarian is Dr. Art Neves from the Willows Animal Hospital.

 We have programs for feeding young and mature animals, as well as breeding bulls, heifers, and cows.  Our billing includes a breakdown of consumption, head days, days on feed, and costs.

 Please call us for prices for your selected program.
