Winter Mitigation and Livestock Worker

VB Ranch in the Texas Panhandle is filling eight winter livestock positions for the cold-weather stretch from October 2026 through the beginning of May 2027. The job combines routine cattle care with winter weather mitigation work, the tasks that keep stock fed, watered and sheltered when conditions turn. The federal job order lists no prior experience requirement, which makes this one of the more accessible entries on this list for someone wanting to get started around cattle. Be aware that the posted normal schedule is 66 hours per week, so this is long-hours work through the winter. The wage offered to US workers is $11.81 per hour.
