M05826 has been in operation since 1999. We are members of the Kansas Buffalo Association and the National Buffalo Association. We currently have a Best of Show bull and a Best of Show heifer. We direct market our meat, skulls, robes, headmounts, and tallow soap in addition to offering several guided hunt packages.
In 1999 the owners of Oden Land and Livestock, Jon and Heather Oden, decided to build a buffalo herd. After studying the needs and living preferences of buffalo, the charter members of the M05826 herd arrived. I don't think I'll ever forget how quiet they were, how they looked us over, or how they took ownership over the land that originally belonged to their kind so long ago. It was like taking a step back in time.
They live and travel our pastures in extended family groupings. Our buffalo spend the majority of their lives on virgin prairie. When it is time to butcher, those culled for butchering are gathered and placed in our home pasture where they have access to grasses and prairie hay as well as some limited grain to maintain a consistent product throughout the year. There is a wide variance in the nutrient quality of grasses throughout the year which translates into a variable quality of meat.
We bring the buffalo to our home pasture to produce more consistent product of buffalo meat through a more consistent nutrient quality diet. We do not support or promote a feedlot philosophy of offering a steady diet of grain to build size for slaughter. We believe such a diet is unnatural and does not preserve the original integrity of the buffalo meat.
Buffalo were naturally designed to roam the open prairie. We respect their natural design and consequently handle the buffalo herd as little as possible, only once a year. They are never given growth stimulants or hormones of any kind. We do not use antibiotics. When we must handle them we do so gently, slowly, and quietly. To do so is less stressful for the animals and also keeps cortisol levels low in the muscles, producing a more tender product. |
