The owner has worked extensively to improve the ranch by selectively removing cedar while preserving the live oak trees. Approximately 70% of the property has been cleared of cedar, allowing native grasses to become reestablished and improving both the appearance and usability of the land. Selective prescribed burning has been used to promote native grasses to grow.
Water
An Edwards Aquifer water well supplies the residence, office, livestock pens, and multiple water troughs throughout the headquarters area.
Wildlife
O5 Ranch offers excellent Hill Country hunting and wildlife viewing. Native wildlife includes white-tailed deer, turkey, wild hogs, dove, quail, gray foxes, coyotes, and other varmints. Occasional free-ranging exotics also pass through the area. The ranch is currently under a wildlife exemption.
