What is the color of cow's milk?

Answer 1

While a herd of cattle is sometimes referred to as cows the word cow is in fact the term for female cattle, moose and elk. Bulls or steers can be any color depending on breed. Holsteins are black and white, jersey's are brown, angus are black and so on.

Answer 2

That all depends on her breeding. Beef cows can be composite or mutt cows with a variety of breeds in her, or a purebred cow of a particular breed. Beef cows range in all sorts of colours (except purple, blue, pink and green), from blue roan to yellow.

For example, an Angus cow is black. A Hereford cow is red with white on the nape of the neck, on the face, dewlap, legs and feet, belly and tail. A Shorthorn can be all red, all white or roan. A Charolais can be all white, yellow (called red-factor), or even a deep red or black. Galloway range from primarily black to white with black points, red, or dun. Highlands come in primarily dun or red, sometimes black. Speckle Park range from white with black points (black ears, eyes, nose, hooves and tips of teats or scrotum), to leopard-colour (black spots over the body), or a roan face, a white dorsal stripe and spotted black sides. Murray Greys range from silver to smoky grey.

An Angus-Hereford cross cow is black with a white face. A Red Angus, Hereford Brahman-cross cow is commonly brindle (brown with black stripes) with a white face. A Red Angus-Charolais-Hereford-Simmental cross cow can be yellow with a white face. Shorthorn-Angus cross cows may be blue roan, grey or black.

The possibilities for colouration and colour patterns of beef cattle is far more than one typically thinks.
