| Here at the Empire, our 500 mother cows graze 300,000 plus acres for 10 months each year only to be supplemented with hay for the short winter period of 2 months. Calves are born untouched on the open range. Cowboys (John, Joyce & family) drift the cattle to different pastures, brand and round up in the fall for weaning. Calves are weaned at six months of age, wintered and turned out in the spring on range to grow and mature as nature intended. Our cattle are not implanted with hormones and they are not fed antibiotics or animal by-products.
