SCI Cattle / HH Cattle Co. · Sladek Ranch · Dale, TexasOur Heritage
What began in 1961 as a passion for good cattle and good people has grown into a commercial cattle business the family runs to this day — SCI Cattle / HH Cattle Co. at Sladek Ranch.
Three generations later, we operate on the same principles that started it all: treat people right, stand behind your word, and never stop working for better cattle. When you work with SCI, you talk to a Sladek — not a call center.
