Both of your parents carry a single cream gene (the dame's foal picture is actually the silver-black phase instead of the red-black phase of a regular black horse). Your young colt, I think, will likely end up being a perlino, two creams on a buckskin.

Cute boy though. :mrgreen:

Oh, see, I think that's when they start getting cute!
I'm one of those that think human babies are ugly. :mrgreen:
At about the time they can use the bathroom properly and speak in full sentences is about the time I think they start getting cute... in that good way.

Hah! My niece decided to throw a tantrum one day when I was out with her. I carried her away from her mother kicking and screaming and we waited in the car while my sister finished shopping. :lol: She decided not to do that again!
It does often come down to how they're raised. And I feel if your nieces and nephews spent a day with me... they'd not likely want to see me again! :twisted: And somehow thank me for it when they've matured a bit.

....

That is the weird thing about it. I often get thanked by those I've watched after a few years have passed. I haven't watched many, but those I did... Anyway, can't exchange family! Send them back, request a replacement! :lol: Too funny. :D

My nephew is 4 years old and throwing tantrums and being really stubborn and the same with my 2 year old niece but my niece is still very cute. I think once they hit the throw tantrums and be stubborn stage is when they start being a bit less cute

Just wanted to say that to avoid confusion it's probably best not to refer to a smoky black foal coat as silver-black. I usually describe as being bluish black versus reddish black.
