Webster Cattle

Webster Cattle breeds Chianina cattle in Allerton, IA, in southwestern Iowa near Des Moines. Ty and Jon Webster have been working with this storied Italian beef breed for more than a decade, maintaining registrations with the American Chianina Association and state livestock organizations. They follow a rigorous health testing protocol including BVD and Johne’s screening and ensure all calves receive early, hands-on socialization to build trust and resilience. Their cattle graze in rotational paddocks bordered by hardwood windbreaks, and farm-built shelters protect them through cold winters and summer storms.

Daily routines balance low-stress handling with ample turnout, reflecting their commitment to calm temperaments and efficient feed conversion. Over fifteen head of their stock have earned regional carcass merit awards, and neighbors often note the herd’s steady disposition and consistent gains. A neighboring rancher remarked on their detailed record-keeping and approachable attitude toward prospective buyers. The Websters trace their roots in cattle farming back two generations, integrating traditional methods with updated nutrition plans.
