Features
Two tools, one platform,
built by a rancher.
Ranch Hero is a trusted marketplace for registered cattle, paired with Herdbook — herd management software for operations running 50 to 500 head. Everything you need, nothing you don't.
Product 1
Sale Barn
Buy and sell registered cattle with verified ranchers. Built for trust, designed for how cattle actually change hands.
Verified seller profiles
Trust badges for verified farms so buyers know who they're dealing with before the first message.
Mobile-first listings
Create a listing from the pasture — photos, breed, price, registration docs, all from your phone.
Inquiry inbox
Every buyer message in one place. No more lost texts, DMs, or Facebook messages across five apps.
Facebook share button
One-tap sharing to Facebook groups where cattle actually sell. Your listing, their audience.
Subdomain storefronts
yourranch.theranchhero.com — your own branded storefront with every animal you've listed.
Scam protection
Verified farms only. No wire transfers, no sketchy middlemen. Real ranchers selling real cattle.
Product 2
Herdbook
Herd management for 50–500 head operations. Free up to 25 animals, $49/mo for unlimited.
Animal records
Tag, breed, sex, birth date, status — every animal in one searchable registry.
Weight tracking + ADG
Log weights at the chute, get average daily gain automatically. Spot underperformers before sale day.
Health event log
Record treatments, vaccinations, and costs. Know your cost-per-head before you price the pen.
Breeding records
Track services, sires, and expected calving dates. Never miss a due cow again.
PDF reports
Herd inventory, weight performance, individual animal history. One click, print-ready.
Offline at the chute
Works without signal. Log data in the working pen, syncs when you're back in service.
Why Ranch Hero
Everything CattleMax and Herdly had,
