    Thank you Short an Sweet. I have a Texas Longhorn and a Black Angus. I googled the belted galloway...what an unique animal and the history is very interesting.

    Oreo cows. This should help. There was quite a stir when some first showed up "here". (By that I mean in the SF bay area.)

    Yep there called the oreo cows .They are a very unique cow. I think I will have to make them if we do the farm animals.I might go take a picture of one and included it with the blocks.Thats if I can find one past the 7 feet snow banks we have right now.

    The oreo cow looks like it's wearing a saddle blanket! Funny!

    The chickens have all been great!

    The farm swap we did last year had a lot of funky animals even if we didn't plan it that way!
    Do a search and check it out.
