Their children Christy and Kinder Colby (4th generation) have each found their niche in the cattle industry Christy as a livestock marketer (CCi.LIVE) and owner of Los Rojas and Colby who co-manages Collins Cattle Inc. with his father C.A. raising show steers and heifers along with high quality seed stock. The 5th generation of Kinder/Collins belongs to Colby and Shellie’s daughters Cierra, Claire, and Cricket. They each have found their love of ranching, showing, and raising cattle.

They can’t think of a better way to raise their three daughters than with Hereford cattle. Collins Ranch is now a much more diversified cattle operation that focuses on quality and overall performance and not as much one specific breed. •
