Yeah, they're pretty cool cattle. I've only seen those two show steer calves from my County last year but I would love to learn a little more about the breed. Are they popular around your area?Alice":2bkcnprb said:

A couple kids from my county showed them last year. They're not real popular but they're a neat breed.
looks more like one of the koala (spelling?) bears from Australia

Not at all. I have no idea where this one came from. We did a search on her when we got her. Google british white. They do sound like good cattle. Good milkers...not prone to pink eye...polled. I don't remember the rest of the adavantages.
Everyone here thought she was a longhorn, or all things. We kept her well long enough to establish she had no horns. I'm not gonna swear she was fulll blood british white...here, you can't swear to that about any breed bought at the sale barn. But, she had all of the characteristics of a british white...I mean ALL of them. If we find heifers like her again, we'll buy them.

Annie,
My wife calls the type cattle that you are referring to "Oreo Cattle". I am suprised that no-one on here did not refer you to the Dickinson Cattle Company (http://www.texaslonghorn.net/buelingo_info/index.cfm) in Ohio who happens to breed this type cattle. They are called BueLingo's. They are a beef breed that are heavily influenced with Salers cattle and Angus cattle as well. The white belt around these cattle is derived from the Dutch Belted Galloway's, which are a dairy type breed. We have both the Belted Galloway's and the Buelingo's here in the U.S.
We are in the process of trying to locate and buy a few BueLingo heifers or momma cows. We want to bring a few of them to Alabama and start a small herd. I do not know if anyone in our State has any of the BueLingo's?

panda cow is sometimes used to refered to hereford / belted galloway cattle .
Hey! I got the right answer for a change! There were some Belties around here during the winter. Some across from Mann Ag in Cleburne and on Hwy 4 outside Cleburne someone had a few. I love they way they look, although I don't know how they would do in this heat. They are cold weather animals, are they not?

Check the Belted Galloway breed website.
http://www.beltie.org/
They have a breeders list. There are Beltewd Galloways in Texas and other parts of the south including Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, etc. Last years yearbook showed that Texas was one of the fastest growing regions of new registrations.
Belties shed their hair in the summer. Here in southern Missouri/northern Arkansas I have not noticed them any more sensitive to heat than angus, charolais, or simmenthal.
Remember Galloway have very thin backfat. Backfat could be just as debilitating in the summer heat as the small amount of summer hair.
There are several types of Galloway cattle they all present with the heavy outer coat of fur. They are from Galloway, Scotland.
1. White Galloway (not white park or british whites) with the black ears, eyes, muzzle and feet. Some are a little a little freckled.
2. Black Galloway which look alot like the old style Aberdeen Angus.
3. Belted Galloway can be black and white, dun and white or red and white. The white belt encircles the belly only.
Here is a good Web site for info: http://www.beltie.org/.

Belted Galloways are what comes to mind but there are tons of cattle that are and can be black and white.

This is the post that never ends . . .
Why would it?
Panda cows: laakenvelder or dutch belted is a dairy breed who got the belt from some imported austrian cows four hundred years ago, as the duch love this belts on anything even on rabbits.
belted galloway got the belt from laakenvelders some two hundred years ago.
Buelingo was created by mr russel bueling in the twentieth century and also got the belt from the laakenvelder.
Use any one of these on a hereford; then pandas will appear!
