Guernsey breed

The Guernsey breed is a dairy cattle variety originating from the Channel Islands, renowned for producing rich, high-quality milk with a golden hue due to its high beta-carotene content. They are medium-sized, with a graceful build, and typically have reddish-ginger and white markings. Guernseys are efficient converters of feed into milk, known for their gentle temperament and adaptability to various farm environments. Their milk is prized in the dairy industry for its excellent flavor and composition, making them a valuable breed for cheese and butter production.
