[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1531285, member: 25884"] Sometimes you just gotta raise what you like.. :) ... and there is always someone who also likes them and there are breeding stock sales.... like me with my dairy cows that I use as nurse cows. After the second generation cross with beef, the calves are nice, have some of the milkiness of the dairy, like Lithuanian says, yet the calves are pretty beefy. And you raise some purebred.... And some areas of the country do not discount for color as much.... besides things run in cycles, and eventually there will be a return to "other colors" as being good beef animals. I love belted galloways yet they aren't worth the powder to blow them to he// around here... but I plan to have 2 or 3 in the next year or so and will use the bull calves for beef... Maybe cross them on my jerseys and make my own "belted" dual purpose cattle.... :clap: :clap: :nod: :nod: [/QUOTE]
