lol, they don't look that much different to the beautiful Belted Galloway, although America does seem to like creating animals at the extreme ends of the size scale!

Doesn't surprise me, it's a 'novelty' because it's unnaturally small isn't it, they just make up the price off the top of their heads. Some daft celebrity would probably snap it up

Makes me mad that an animal could sell for so much just because their markings are similar to another animal & on the small side..

I would think that it is the small size too, not just the colour. I am not sure about the farming situation in China, but there is I would think a niche for a smaller beef animal if they only have small plots for instance. I know that the Chinese beef market is growing with more of Chinese people wanting beef, so perhaps small beef cows would work well there.

they'd probably have to rehome the teacup chihuahua & diamante encrusted ferret first!
