Poker Holler Farms

Poker Holler Farms is a small, family owned cattle operation specializing in grass fed Belted Galloway cattle (also known as Oreo cows). Poker Holler Farms started as a dream for our family several years ago.

Prior to my father-in-laws passing, we promised him we would make it a reality, and we have. Our small herd consists of 14 Belted Galloway cows. Our cows are raised as naturally as possible, they are grass fed and supplemented with non-GMO grains. We are hoping to help our local 4-H club by providing our cattle to 4-H'ers that want to show but don't have access to show quality cattle. Poker Holler

Our porch duck, Curly, decided to bring his younger friends up tonight.

When the girls do everything short of jumping into the water tank, you hose them down!

My porch buddy, Curly, for the next 6 weeks.

For some reason Michelle did not like my pictures I took on the farm this evening. The poor little fellar was just trying to get his tan on and find some supper. If Michelle Would have felt better I would have brought it in the house to show her.

A little family fun in the Holler today. Had a blast sharing our critters with the sister in law, nieces and nephew.

Happy horses in the Holler. Cooper being his goofy ole self in the back, Sasha and Granny just enjoying the green grass.

Our favorite lady here in the Holler, Calamity Jane, had a little bull calf last night. Both mama and baby are doing fantastic.

03/23/2019

We are downsizing due to my husband’s job. We have an awesome registered Belted Galloway bull and 2 registered Belted Galloway heifers (bred due June/July). The bull, Ireland Cyrus Moses [USD] 40435B will be 4 in August. He throws amazing calf’s, small easy birth. The girls, Littlefield Farms Darlene [USD] 40405B and Littlefield Farms Dora [USD] 40407B will be 3 in July and August. Both girls were bred to the bull listed. All are easy keepers. The girls love attention and all will follow you anywhere for a treat. This would be a great addition to an existing herd or a great starter herd for someone looking to get into the Belted Galloway family. We are located in Central Illinois. Delivery could be discussed. $1500 each or a package deal is an option.

A new addition here in the Holler. Tian’s horse Granny. She is just the sweetest girl ever.

02/23/2019

Friday night was not a good start to the weekend. Our mare, Sasha, decided to cut her leg open. Thankfully Dr Hall at Murrayville Mixed Animal Clinic is amazing and was able to fix her up.

02/11/2019

A couple of new additions to Poker Holler Farms. Sasha, the white mare and Cooper the gelding. Very laid back and gentle horses. Tian is just loving them.

Our Bull Ireland Cyrus Moses loves getting treats from his boy.

Ole Tulip is about as playful as a dog and follows me around like one to. We are going to miss her after she leaves for freezer camp in a few week. Some animals you hate to see leave the farm but that is all part of keeping the farm moving forward.

Janey being spoiled. If you quit loving on her she will just follow you around.

Tian and Calamity Jane. Our big Teddy Bear cow Jane is a full blooded Belted Galloway. However she is registered as an appendix because she was born with out a belt.

Here is a better video of our puppy playing with our piggies.

Introduced our dog Tyson to the pigs this evening. I don't know who enjoyed themselves more pigs, dogs or us.

A boy and his calf. Dory

I have been around quite a few cattle so far in my life but this is the first one I have seen drink with it's tongue. Or maybe I have just never slowed down enough to notice until now. Jane
