The primary breed of dairy cattle, being the Holstein, is primarily black and white, with a few less-than-ideal Holsteins coming out as red and white. Jerseys range from fawn to black; Brown Swiss a dark brown to black; Ayrshires white with brown speckles, Guernseys a light-brown with white patches; Canadiennes are black, etc. So the primary colours range from white, black, brown, fawn and sometimes red.
