Pat O'Dell

Pat O’Dell, a Limousin breeder in Colton, OR, operates in Linn County and the Willamette Valley near Salem. Pat O’Dell has been raising Limousin cattle for over fifteen years and maintains membership in the American Limousin Association, with routine EPD evaluations, genetic screening for coat color dilution and other breed health markers, and regular veterinary checkups. The cattle graze on rotational pastures of mixed grasses and clover, and calves are handled from birth to encourage gentle temperaments and ease of management.

Several of the animals have placed in regional performance evaluations and local shows, reflecting Pat O’Dell’s breeding focus on structural soundness, feed efficiency and consistent weight gain. A detailed health record accompanies each calf, documenting vaccinations, deworming schedules and genetic test outcomes that support transparency and buyer confidence. Visitors often note the welcoming farm atmosphere and appreciate transparent tours that highlight the operation’s commitment to animal welfare. The farm’s barns are cleaned daily and housing is arranged to allow natural social bonding among herd members.
