While they may not in the beef business, they have lots of cattle that's for sure. Looks like he is crossed with a holstein...not a MaineX.ALACOWMAN":2ntep3l5 said:from the looks of the rest of their stock,, they aint to picky... going back and reading a list of their other animals. i dont think their in the beef business, more like a petting zoo, or a shorthorn away from it :cowboy:

I bet there is no galloway in him at all. Most likely a Dutch Belted x Holstein cross.Galloway2":cf1jhmwk said:Quote from their ad : very nice 2 yr old galloway belted bull

Well I know for sure, this bull will bring injustice to his breed. On other hand I'm having withdrawals of beltie steaks at this moment......but I don't want pay $1400 for a mongrel bull.Galloway2":2okbjurr said:Taurus":2okbjurr said:I bet there is no galloway in him at all.

Maybe, maybe not. To them he is, and they are be nice proud of it, that's the issue I have.
It took years for my grandfather(blessed his heart) found a high quality purebred belted galloway heifer (blessed her heart) for my 4-H and FFA shows when I was a young kid (before I got my first chest hair).Galloway2":2r4gd5xx said:It is all in name recognition. Unfortunately when they hear the name Galloway, this is the type of animal they recognize. The hobby farm industry has created a pile of them.
Judging from the background and the holsteins, I seriously doubt that he is a buelingo.jcarkie":3rc6vd1t said:it may a buelingo cross they are belted and smooth. galloway has alot of hair even here in south.

Well I know for sure: the seller will have tough time to sell him. Even a hobby farmer can see that it's not a purebred belted galloway.Galloway2":1wx3ggt8 said:jcarkie":1wx3ggt8 said:it may a buelingo cross they are belted and smooth. galloway has alot of hair even here in south.
you could be right. The buelingo started out as a Belted Galloway X Dutch Belted (Dairy) They originated 15 miles from my place.
A Belted Galloway X Holstien would look very similar
