Guernsey Cow & Cute Calf in Summer Pasture Button

The Guernsey breed of cattle gets its name from the island of Guernsey in the Channel Islands. It can range from a light tan and white to a reddish-brown and white. This brown and white often has a spotting pattern similar to a Holstein but is brownish instead of black. They are a popular breed of dairy cattle because they are very efficient milk producers compared to many other dairy breeds. They are also considered docile, which makes them easy to handle.
