Great BueLingo Cattle

DCC Ranch eNews #113, 8-23-201

BueLingo is a blended breed with a Holland base of Dutch Belted Dairy blood. This is where the white belt comes from. Ranchers who developed the BueLingo did not want a dairy pasture breed so a blend of Angus, Charolais, Limousin and a nickles worth of Salorn is the package. The belt remains, but may only be an eighth or less of Dutch Belted Dairy blood. There is just enough to add a touch of extra milk, which, easy to understand, gives some additional weaning calf growth.

The blend just happens to be ideal for some dairy leanness, Limousin carcass quality, calving ease of Salorn and an Angus base. Other BueLingo producers may have a different blend, but the belt must remain to be a registered BueLingo with the BueLingo Beef Cattle Society.

Dickinson Cattle Co selected BueLingo in 1989 as the second breed, very different to the Texas Longhorn herd. The BueLingo gives a different market, a great beef animal and a color that is absolutely striking in the pasture. The success of grass feeding BueLingo for freezer beef is more and more fun. A pure registered herd makes an awesome picture.
