My old Daddy always said "colder than a well-digger's arse in Alaska", so I'm gonna stick with that.

Regarding cow vs brown cow; I personally don’t say that. Describing the cow was just the way I heard it from the good old country boys (men really, they were 50+ ) in Winn Parish in the early 1970s.

They liked to make it a little more colorful i guess.

And, people around here say “colder than a well diggers arse in the Yukon”. But I prefer “colder than a witches tit in a brass brassiere”.
