The Brown Swiss cow

Brown Swiss

This cow is coming from Switzerland.

 

Good points:

The Brown Swiss has very strong legs. More protein then Holstein-cows. Brown Swiss cows live a longer life. Good cell mark.

 

Bad points:

Less milk. Drinking behavior of the calves. Problems to get the milk down in the udder.
