I’m excited to finally share with everyone what we’ve been building.

Pasture is a platform designed to help families buy freezer beef directly from trusted processors and farms using fixed pricing and automated pay-over-time options before processing and delivery.

The goal is simple: make buying beef in bulk more accessible and affordable for everyday families.

We are currently in demo mode and preparing for a soft launch in the Oklahoma City metro. If you have ever wanted to fill your freezer with high-quality local beef but the upfront cost felt like too much at once, this is exactly what Pasture was built for.

Please check out the site, create a free account, and share your feedback.

Our vision is to scale nationally so families across the country can access local beef in their own communities.

When the Monday blues ain’t a bad thing. 💙🐮

Nothing cures a case of the Monday blues like a fresh blue roan calf standing in the sunshine.

At Make It Roan, this is the kind of Monday we look forward to. New life, strong genetics, and another reminder that hard work and patience always pay off.

This little one is proof that some of the best things in life are worth the wait.

Today we lost our good buddy, Tim.

Tim was not only a barn cat but he was part of the family. He spent his days doing what cats like Tim are born to do keeping watch over the place, hunting when he felt like it, and reminding us that some of the best animals on a ranch ask for very little but give a whole lot in return.

He had a way of always being around when you least expected it and will leave a bigger hole here than most people would understand. If you’ve ever had a good farm cat, you know they earn their keep and then some. Tim was one of the good ones.

We lost Tim to bobcat fever, also known as cytauxzoonosis, a serious tick-borne disease in cats. The disease is carried by ticks, with wild bobcats serving as the natural host. Domestic cats can become infected from a tick bite, and once symptoms appear (fever, lethargy, loss of appetite, difficulty breathing) the illness can progress very quickly.

We’re sharing this because many people have never heard of bobcat fever until it’s too late. If you live in an area with ticks and bobcats, it’s worth talking to your veterinarian about tick prevention for your cats, even barn cats that seem tough enough to handle anything.

Tim was tough, independent, and exactly the kind of cat every ranch hopes to have around. We’re grateful for the time we had with him and for all the mice he kept out of the house.

Rest easy, Tim. You were a good one, and you’ll be missed more than you know. 🐾❤️

Meet the crew behind Make It Roan and the ones who actually are responsible for these cattle:

Blayden, Makray, Makailey, and Rallston.

They didn’t start with a big master plan. The kids just wanted a few miniature roan cattle of their own, and it turned into this. They worked for every dollar that went into these bulls and cows with a little help from family and they take a lot of pride in that.

They’re the ones out there feeding, checking, and keeping up with them. Some days it goes smooth, some days it doesn’t, but they’re learning what it takes either way.

They were given dominion over these animals and they’re learning what that responsibility looks like every day.

The kids have been taking over feeding duty lately… and apparently we’re improvising now 😂

Couldn’t find the feed scoop anywhere, so a hat got promoted to the job. Whatever works when cattle are waiting.

Raising kids that don’t mind getting their hands dirty > doing it the “right” way every time.

Maybe we can get John B to change the logo!

Do roans get lighter after their first shed?

Short answer: most roans appear to lighten — but the genetics don’t change.

Roan cattle are born with the same roan hair distribution they’ll have for life. What changes after the first shed is the hair length and texture, not the roan gene itself.

Calf and winter coats are longer and denser, which can make roans look darker. After shedding into a shorter summer coat, the white hairs reflect more light — so the roan pattern becomes clearer and often looks lighter.

A few things affect how noticeable the change is:
• Blue roans usually show the biggest visual change
• Red roans often brighten into a strawberry tone
• Dilution (dun/silver) softens contrast
• Long-haired cattle show more seasonal variation

Bottom line:
👉 Roans don’t “turn on” later — shedding just reveals what was already there.

This is why we focus on genetics and transparency, not promises about exact shade.
