Holsteins are relatively calm, but most do have a slightly nervous temperament, especially when pushed or excited. Holstein bulls, however, are more aggressive and dangerous than cows are.
In general, Friesian horses are known for their pleasant dispositions. But, as with all other horses, their temperament can vary significantly from horse to horse.
Holstein Friesian cattle
I was once chased by a cow of this breed.

Holstein-Friesian are the most popular breed of cattle found. Many farms keep these milk cows.
Amerifax cattle originated in the United States and are a result of different breeds of cattle being bred together. They are 5/8ths Angus and 3/8ths beef Friesian.

I have worked with holstein cows for several years now, and from my experience, temperment varies from cow to cow. They are mostly nervous around humans, though some of them are quite friendly and enjoy being scratched and petted.
The temperament of an animal all depends on how it was raised, some are more high strung than others and some are more laid back.
There is a brewery that uses the surname Holsten.However, the likely word may be Holstein, a breed of dairy cattle (also known as Friesian).
They usually have a calm temperament.-ScarletChick on horse isle
A famer has 210 cattle within his herd. One-third of the entire cattle stock are friesian. There are as many friesian bulls as there are friesian cows and all cows are pregnant. If all calves are delivered successfully, what is the minimum number of friesian calves the farmer should expect?So let's break it down then. A farmer has 210 cattle and only 1/3 (one-third) of them are Friesian. So it's the 1/3 of the herd that we are dealing with hear and not the other 2/3's, which could be beef cattle or some other dairy breed which is of no concern to us in this math problem. In this 1/3 of the herd, there is a 1:1 ratio of bulls to cows (strong anthropromorphication here, but that's another story), which means 1/2 of that 1/3 of the herd is comprised of cows and the other half of bulls. Now the interesting part of the question: MINIMUM. In this question, logically speaking the minimum number of calves the farmer can have is 0. BUT, since the farmer has ALL the calves delivered successfully, this is not a matter of minimum nor maximum. This is a mathematical equation with only one possible answer, which is as follows:210 cattle x (1/3) = 70 Friesian cattle.70 x (1/2) = 35 cows and 35 bulls (remember: 1:1 ratio.)35 cows in calf & all cows calve successfully = 35 calves to expect.Therefore, the farmer should expect to have 35 freisian calves if all goes well.
