[QUOTE="Taurus, post: 971752, member: 18288"] Noticed that I don't say upgrade the breed by breeding DB bulls to other dairy cows? It's still crossbreeding and the crossbreds are still using as a milking cow. Even the registered Dutch Belted cows has a dash of holstein and jersey in them and there are lots of crossbreds than purebred DB cattle out there on dairy operations. Just because of that specific Dutch Belted cow's a high priced cow, doesn't mean all Dutch Belted cattle were high priced and it doesn't seems that both crossbreds and purebreds are popular with most dairy farmers. You can find a cheap Dutch Belted cow around here and there...around $900 to $1,200 depends on the weight. Many years ago while I was looking for a belted cow for the showring as 4-H and FFA project, I met few belted cattle owners that has Dutch Belted cows running with the beef mixed breed cows. You cannot mistake these cows for Belted Galloway with their large size, big udders and the dairy features. I don't know why they have these Dutch Belted cows on their commerical operations but I ended up with a registered Belted Galloway heifer instead of these Dutch Belted cattle. [/QUOTE]
