Original text on this topic:
The colour is greyish brown, darkest on the back, with a pinkish tint on the head and the belly, while within the skinfolds and on the inner side of the upper lip the colour is that of meat with a leadish tint. The calves are lighter in colour, at birth provided with short wooly but rather coarse yellowish or dirty white hairs on the back, which they loose after a few months.
