Red and white holstein would probably top my list for pure breeds. Especially if your raising them to sell as springers. I know here there is more demand for them. But for your own use. The milking shorthorns are a good choice too. They have more strength to them. We have many holstein/shorthorn crosses and the shorthorn really brings alot of strength to the calf.

Ayshires are okay but, more frail than either holstein or shorthorn. I'm not familiar with the finish reds.

Guernesys are actually brown and white.

I'm going to say Ayrshires because that's the only breed I know anything about.
