Jim & Becky Venner Family

Jim & Becky Venner Family are Limousin cattle breeders in Breda, IA, Carroll County and west-central Iowa near Des Moines. They have built their herd over more than twenty years through membership in the American Limousin Association and complete genetic, fertility, and standard health testing on each animal.

Youngstock are raised on expansive grasslands with daily handling to foster a calm temperament and early social behavior. The Venner farm relies on rotational grazing and cover crops to maintain soil health and support a balanced diet. Facilities include heated calving barns and spacious loafing sheds for year round comfort.

Third-generation stewardship guides their breeding choices, blending traditional selection with data-driven results for frame, muscle, and maternal traits. Calving success and weaning weights are tracked annually to support continuous herd improvement. Reviews highlight the cattle’s steady growth rates and approachable nature, evidence of careful management and genuine animal care.
