Can't go wrong at that price. Heck $56 won't take the family through McD's more than twice, get her fat and eat her if nothing else.
Nope , that is a Dutch Belted or a Dutch belted cross.I believe this one is a belted galloway right?
I agree.Nope , that is a Dutch Belted or a Dutch belted cross.
Dutch Belted are a dairy breed that origins go back to Germany
Belted Galloway Is one of the colorations of the Galloway beef breed that origins go back to Scotland .
Off subject but... why are your corral panels upside down?Anybody else got some of these?
Seems there was a very brief convo a while back.
I believe she just weaned a calf. Shes bawling. See how her bag looks tomorrow morning. Came from a pretty fancy place I think. Printed ear tag with her name and birth date and owners name.
She will be 5 in April. Not bred.
She will get spoiled a bit til I decide what I wanna do with her. Puppy dog gentle. Eats cubes from your hand. Allows petting. If I read the tag right her name is "Willow"
I know someone will ask...
Weighs less than 600 at 56
We are in the money! Always wanted one. Now I got one.

Had to look at that myself in the picture, as I didn't see long toes at the sale. Mostly manure. But they are a touch long. Just a tiny bit. Not out of the ordinary tho.Well you got a good deal alright and you will do well with her but did you notice how long her rear toes seems in the photo.

Told ya she was small!Off subject but... why are your corral panels upside down?
I'd need vodka in my coffee if I saw that every dayO hey! G'mornin @TCRanch
Time for coffee and a daily chuckle?
You'll have to keep us updated on how the calf grows!My son picked her up from the barn, my wife had to have her and bought her from him.
She had a solid colored calf, unusual.
That's her first calf.
She had a really good bag and gave lots of milk, the calf she is raising isn't the, maybe because she's a heifer.You'll have to keep us updated on how the calf grows!
I've heard several things about the belt being dominant. But also hear sometimes the belt doesn't transfer to the calf. I guess the belt is kind of like the homo/hetero black thing. Only takes 1 belt gene to make a belted calf but doesn't ALWAYS transfer to the calf depending what the belted animal is bred with.
Yours looks like a good big solid cow! Thanks for sharing her with us
Do you know the sire of the calf?She had a really good bag and gave lots of milk, the calf she is raising isn't the, maybe because she's a heifer.
My wife wants to keep her heifer, but recently cut one of her hind feet on something.
We'll have to get her well then go from there.
My experience with cuts on the feet haven't been good.
It's a bit sad. Herd reduction due to family issues. Kind of liked to known which calf was hers, I'd a at least run it up there a bit.@tex452 your cow looks much more like a Dutch Belted... build, dairyness, udder... and from what I have been told, the dutch belteds seem to not pass the belt as much as the belted galloways. She's a nice looking cow.
@MurraysMutts , did they say why they sold her?? I am glad you called.
