I'm guessing an assortment of colors, ranging from white through tans to reddish brown.

Today I worked on farm animals, painting chickens, pigs and I started on the cows.  (I forgot to prime them earlier.)  We'll see how things look tomorrow once the paint is dried, but so far I'm pretty happy.  Photos tomorrow.

No.  I don't have the space to pasture the bull separate from the cows...
