Brian Deppe

Brian Deppe is a Limousin cattle breeder based in Bellevue, IA. He operates in Jackson County and eastern Iowa near Dubuque and has been involved in breeding programs for over fifteen years, maintaining a registered herd and ensuring routine health testing with local veterinary partners.

The cattle are pasture raised to encourage natural grazing behaviors and receive daily low-stress handling to build a calm temperament. Calves are gradually introduced to group settings to foster social bonds and ease the transition at weaning. Brian collaborates with local veterinarians to implement vaccination schedules and nutritional plans tailored for herd health and performance. The operation combines time-honored farm practices with modern herd management, resulting in offspring valued for muscling, fertility, and adaptability across climates. Owners of his stock often find the offspring integrate smoothly into both commercial and seedstock operations thanks to consistent growth rates and solid structural soundness.
