Tim Rave

Tim Rave is a Limousin cattle breeder based in Baltic, SD in southeastern South Dakota near Sioux Falls. His family-run Rave Ranches has been operating since 2008, combining sustainable pasture management with rotational grazing practices. With more than a decade of experience, he maintains registered breeding stock and holds memberships in the American Limousin Association. His herd undergoes regular health screening for genetic conditions and structural soundness.

Animals are raised on open pasture with a focus on balanced nutrition and gradual weaning to support steady growth and maternal development. Calves receive early handling and exposure to varied environments to build calm temperaments across both ranch and show settings. A number of his cattle have earned ribbons at regional fairs for muscle tone and disposition. Attention to low-stress management and structural assessment aims to produce cattle suited to commercial herds and family farms.
