Our first beltie


This afternoon Ben and I went and picked up a Belted Galloway Steer from a breeder 30 minutes away. Not only do they have the same markings as our Wessex Saddleback pigs they are also meant to be exceptional eating, a lower feed to meat ratio than traditional cattle and low in saturated fats.
We will soon also have a cow with a calf and in calf in the next little while. We are just waiting for it to get "in calf" before picking them up.
