Have you ever seen a cow that looks like an Oreo? When I saw these little guys, I was astounded by the perfect ring that wraps around their belly. I wonder what type of breed they are, if they are more valuable than an Angus, and if they are friendly like the Jersey that I used to feed and love on. My wish is to have another Jersey. I would like to have one that is young so I can teach her tricks and let my niece ride her. Awww, that would be fun!
Belted Galloway - The breed started and was developed in the austere hill country in the Galloway area of south-west Scotland and is believed to have originated more than 300 years ago the result of crossing the Galloway with the Dutch Laken elder. The "Beltie" is naturally polled and has striking colourings of black, red or dun, with a white belt.
ReplyDeleteWe should have a couple of them around here, since it seems as though they would be part of your heritage...just sayin'.
