Why Schneider Brahmans

Measured, Not Guessed

The +S herd is 100% DNA verified, yearlings are ultrasounded for marbling and rib eye, and rail grades are collected on every +S steer.

Horned and Polled Genetics

Pasture breeding, AI and an aggressive embryo transfer program using top horned and polled, gray and red Brahman bloodlines.

Built for Native Pasture

Selected for fertility, disposition, moderate birth weight, sound feet and udders, and cattle that hold condition on native grass with minimal supplement.

Our Story

O.W. and Donna Schneider, part of a six-generation Texas Hill Country ranching family, founded Schneider Brahmans as a registered cattle operation in 1974. In 2024 the ranch marked 50 years of producing quality Brahman cattle and beef in the Hill Country.

Today Wesley and William Schneider manage the +S Brahmans cattle operation and breeding program from Fredericksburg, Texas, running on more than 8,000 acres of owned and leased land. The program combines natural pasture breeding, AI and embryo transfer with the best horned and polled Brahman genetics, and has many repeat buyers at home and abroad.

In 2022 the family launched its Ranch to Table program, +S Brahman Beef, built on the herd's carcass genetics for tenderness, rib eye area and marbling. The beef is sold from the Brahman Market on the ranch at 1571 Alfred Petsch Road, and visitors are always welcome to come see the cattle.
