Quest, I can give you Marine Flag after her latest foal. And I can send her bred to Grand Vanity. Here's her most recent filly out of him:

I would love to have her!
Do you just want to private message me when you're available? I'll be around pretty much all day. Living the life here as a snowed in college student.

Here are a few i can let go. Plus, I can put up for stud any of my stallions you like. (This goes for anyone.)
I'd love the chestnut roan colt and the red dun snowcap w/ snowflake colt, if that's not too much to ask. If you need me, I'll be buying a few thousand PT to blow on AC horses!

What's a good age to rehome foals? If I recall correctly, snowflake appears later on, but I don't want to have horses that may not have LP taking up space...
With practice, you can tell snowflakes on most colors by 4-6 months. Roans and very light colors, makes it a little harder to see. I can see them starting as early as 2 months on some colors. When to rehome depends on your goals. If you want big patterns, those are visible at birth, and you can rehome any that don't have that. If you want snowflakes, you could wait until 1 or 2 to be sure. I personally can tell by 6 months on most horses if they will snowflake and usually if they will varnish a lot.

Also, let me know when you are on so I can put those two colts up for you on my other account. :)

Are you available now? I'll put them up at $100 ea. I'll put up Pink Maiden (Pink is older, you'll likely be able to get 1 or 2 foals out of her), Nutmeg Flurry, and Winners Avalanche.
If Quest would like the others, I think I may be too far forward at this point to add them in.

That sounds good to me. I just don't need them any more and am trying to free up more space

What do you call this white? I like to put the colours on all my horses, and used to just write blanket or snowcap depending on size, but now that it's more than the bum I'm feeling a bit lost. Not many appys where I live :D
I just call most of mine spotted! At lease all the single Lp patn ones. The homozygous Lp I'll call snowcap/fewspot depending how big the white, and any of the LP non patn ones just varnish or snowflake. Everything else isn't genetic so I don't worry about appaloosa registry definitions as mine aren't appaloosa's anyway

I noticed one of my colts developing a small patch of snowflakes. So I made a little gif of him growing up (3.5 months to 4 years).

Oh she's cute, love the face markings!

I just put this stallion up for stud, not as coloured as some but a different type to many of the caspian/shettie ones around
