The ranch is located in northeastern New Mexico. Connie’s parents, Don and Mary Helen Kuper, put the ranch together and managed a successful and progressive commercial Hereford herd for a number of years. In 1993 Michael and Connie bought the cowherd and started leasing the ranch. We currently run 380 commercial and 60 registered cows in some of the best sand hill country in the Southwest. The ranch goal is simple. We expect maximum production out of every cow with limited input. We currently are striving to raise superior baldies. We run 100 baldies and are impressed every year with their efficiency and production.

Michael and Connie have been working diligently on their registered herd for over 35 years. Over the years their philosophy has never changed; line up as many good cows as you can in one pedigree. We have been fortunate to land several outstanding sires that appear in about every pedigree: Bell L Diamond 12Z, C Pure Gold 0140, KJ BJ Bounty Hunter 741P, and GH Rambo. Our young herd sires consist of: GO 3196 Advance T9, H5 9126 Domino 752 and GKB W4 Downtown B858 ET.

After graduating from Kansas State University Kyle returned to the ranch in 2005 and married Tonya Orr in June of 2008. She works for the Colorado based company, AgTown Technologies. Drew is currently working on a degree from Texas Tech University and is on the judging team. Connie contributes to the ranch income, as she has been a full time teacher for 30 years.

C&M Herefords is truly a family operation. It takes contributions from everyone to make it a success. This ranch’s interest is always directed towards our customers’ needs. We back everything we sell, and are not satisfied until you are. We appreciate your interest in our program, and look forward to doing business with you in the future.
