It depends on the breed (not species, as mentioned below; there is only one species of domestic bovine [Bos primigenius] divided into two subspecies [Bos primigenius taurus and Bos primigenius indicus]). A Holstein will have pink skin with black spotting pattern, or if with red hair, the skin will be pigmented a brownish-pink colour.
White cattle tend to have pink/white skin. Blacks will have dark skin, and brown will have brown-pigmented skin. Greys typically have dark skin like those with black hair (Angus, Kerry, etc.), and white cattle with black points (Ancient Whitepark, American Whitepark, etc.) will typically have dark skin as well.
The rule of thumb to understand skin colour is that there are only three possible colours of hide: Pink (or white), dark (almost black), and brown. Usually all come in a solid colour or patches, with exceptions as mentioned above.
It depends on the species of the cow.
The common dairy cow has white skin with black or brown spots.
However there are also brown cows, tan cows, white and tan cows, black cows, pure white cows and so on, depending on their exact species.
