Winter Cattle Feeder / Ranch Livestock Production

Stevenson Angus Ranch, a long-established seedstock operation in the Judith Basin country of central Montana, is hiring three winter cattle feeders through a federal job order running from mid-October 2026 to the end of April 2027. The work is specific to caring for livestock through the winter: driving trucks and other equipment to distribute feed to animals on the range, repairing equipment and tires to keep it running, and lifting and carrying hay bales weighing up to a hundred pounds. Workers break ice with a shovel or spud bar to keep water open for stock, ride a horse or four-wheeler to move cows between pastures, put out supplementary rations and mineral blocks, and run a tractor with a blade. Three months of experience is required on a 47-hour week.
