Big Hollow Farms

Big Hollow Farms is a Limousin cattle breeder in Sperry, Iowa, in Scott County and the Quad Cities near Davenport. The farm participates in the National Limousin Association registry, maintains health screenings for genetic conditions, and schedules regular veterinary evaluations to support sound development. As a family-run, multi-generational operation, it maintains a tradition of attentive husbandry and careful record keeping.

Animals graze on rotational pastures with weekly herd checks and daily interaction to build trust. The owner, Sam A Schnedler, has grown the herd with attention to low-stress handling and sustainable forage practices. Every calf is selected for balanced growth rates and gentle disposition and raised on the homestead with access to clean water and shelter suited to seasonal weather. A focus on temperament and structural soundness helps herds adapt smoothly to new environments and supports longevity in the herd.
