About Lackey Livestock
Based in Haskell, Texas, we raise show pigs and work with families to build programs kids are proud of when they walk into the ring.
The families we help are serious about being competitive and expect to succeed, but they also understand there is only one winner at each show. We surround their kids with driven, like minded families so winning becomes contagious, and when it is not their day, they are still in an environment of coaching, love, and honest feedback so they can learn, adjust, and come back stronger.
Our Story
Livestock has been at the center of the Lackey family for generations, raising both cattle and show pigs. In 2006, Jason and Jackie Lackey started what is now Lackey Livestock, a year round show pig operation focused on breeding stock and competitive show pigs for youth exhibitors across the country.
We are based in Texas, but our pigs and families compete from county fairs to Texas majors and shows all across the nation. The same standards we expect for our own boys, Weston and Grant, are what we expect for every pig and every family that walks in our barn.
Why Families Trust Us
Jason graduated from Texas A&M University with a Bachelor’s in Animal Science and a Master’s in Agriculture Science. He was a member of the 2002 National Champion Livestock Judging Team and later coached collegiate teams at Fort Hays and LSU. Over the years he has helped develop products for multiple animal nutrition companies, always with the goal of helping livestock look their best on show day.
Jackie also graduated from Texas A&M with a Bachelor’s in Animal Science and a Master of Agribusiness. She owned and operated Encore Visions for more than 15 years, building and elevating ag brands across the U.S. and abroad. She founded DRIVE, a print and online publication supporting junior livestock programs, served as Director of Marketing for BioZyme, Inc. and the COO of The Wendt Group (showpig.com), along with advising many other ag businesses.
Together, that mix of in ring experience, nutrition and judging knowledge, and industry wide perspective shapes how we breed, how we select, and how we coach families through a season.
