Everyone needs a trusty companion. 🤎🐾

Missy has traveled many miles riding sh***un. These days, she needs a little help getting in, but she still perks up every time she hears, “It’s time to go!”

Checking fence lines and evaluating pastures are necessary parts of the job—and spotting a cottontail or two makes the trip worthwhile in Missy’s book.

A good dog makes the workday better and the miles more memorable.

Spa day, steer style. 🐮💦 Same spot. Same happy customer!

This guy is a regular at the “spa.” We’re not sure he’s thought through the whole bathing-in-his-drinking-water situation! 😂

Cattle have personalities, routines, and favorite spots. When you care for them every day, you get to know those little quirks—and that’s part of what makes the job so rewarding.

Just another day at Southern Livestock. 🤎

The cattle are fed, and it’s 5 o’clock somewhere! 🥩🍹

Here’s to a week of hard work, good cattle and good company. Cheers to everyone keeping agriculture moving—and everyone ready for a little time to unwind.

What’s your Friday evening looking like? 🥩

Hope matters. 🎀

Behind every herd, harvest and family farm are people who mean everything to someone.

This October, Southern Livestock honors those we’ve lost to breast cancer, supports those facing it and celebrates survivors. We also recognize the families, friends and caregivers walking beside them.

In agriculture, we know the value of showing up for one another. Sometimes that means helping with chores, delivering a meal or simply taking time to listen.

Whether you’re part of the ag community or beyond, you matter. We stand together in support and hope. 💗

Packer grids pay on more than just weight. 🥩 Quality grade, yield grade, and carcass merit all factor into the final price, and two animals at the same live weight can land in very different places on the grid depending on how they finish.

Understanding the grid is foundational to how we manage cattle through the last stretch of the feeding period at Wilroads, because the goal isn't just finishing cattle. It's finishing them in a way that captures every bit of value they're capable of.

🌾 Five generations of farming. Decades of hard work. A family tradition that keeps growing.

From silage harvest in the 1960s to a crop of a lifetime standing tall in 2026, these photos tell part of our family’s farming story.

Behind every harvest are hot afternoons servicing equipment, checking moisture, and preparing the land. There’s patience through dry weather, gratitude for the rain, and pride in seeing the work pay off.

The modern-day office looks a little different—with technology in the tractor cab helping us make the most of every acre. But the care for the land and dedication to the work have carried through five generations.

🚜 Happy National Farmers Day to those who came before us, those working the fields today, and the next generation learning beside us.

Mental health matters. 💚

In agriculture, we’re used to long days, uncertain markets, unpredictable weather and caring for everything that depends on us. Sometimes, taking care of ourselves gets pushed to the bottom of the list.

Whether you work in the field, at the feedyard, in an office or at home caring for your family, the weight you carry isn’t always visible.

Check on the people beside you. Ask how they’re doing—and take time to listen. Reaching out for support is a sign of strength.

At Southern Livestock, we care about the people behind the work. You matter, and you don’t have to carry it alone.
