Re: Color help
Apology accepted. I just saw the freckly bits and the partial blanket on the horse I asked about, I got lost.BlackOak2 wrote:We attempt to help people along in this game because it's complicated.

So if you're interested in the colors of your horses, our color guides offer all the hints needed to define the colors of your horses.
Perhaps my response was a bit too gruff. So I apologize for that.
So let me begin again.
First, color testing is planned, it's just not implemented yet. We don't know when the testing will be applied in game. But what I can tell you is that a horse won't produce an offspring with a random color. The horse pair can only produce an offspring with colors that it has to offer forth. So two black horses cannot in any way produce a brown or a bay, and so on.
Second, it helps us quite a bit if you don't make us name every foal ever born on your farm for color. We start doing that for everybody and then nobody will get any color help. If you're stuck or you don't understand what hints to look for, we'll certainly aid you in what to look for, because once you learn, then you too, can pass this knowledge forward to other players.
And lastly, our color guides are quite extensive. Not everybody can follow them, understand them or make full use of them. If they don't make sense, we need you to tell us, so that we can help you understand them better. In order for our community to work well, we need our community to provide for itself.
So please accept my apology and let us know what color hints you're missing, so that you can learn to identify these colors better.
Then join us waiting with baited breath for the release of the gene testing. Many of us are excited by the release of this, whenever it is scheduled for.

We have an entire study in the color guide about just that gene.
It's also known as appaloosa. A single gene gives you the blanket and a double gene gives you the frosting.
Take a look at a single versus a double on these two horses:
Single Lp gene
Double Lp gene

Re: Color help
I don't really understand you're question. It appears that you're asking if Imagine Dragons has a dorsal stripe that leaks. He does have a dorsal stripe. Could leaking mean that it's 'falling' or 'leaking' out beyond the stripe itself? In this case, yes, but only there just above his shoulder.Lyoko2516 wrote:And leaky dorsal stripe, too?BlackOak2 wrote:
