Re: Belgian Colour Help.
Solar Power is indeed the perpetrator. It's just hard to see because he's muscly.
See this younger picture of him:

Still not in-your-face but a bit more noticeable.

Re: Belgian Colour Help. Part 2
I have a batch of 4 new horses that I can't name and need help with.
First I have Masda
OTM Masda

I believe that she has champagne and don't know about what else apart from palomino and sooty possibly?
Her foal Masda Past
OTM Masda Past

I believe that she is the same as her dam except no sooty?
OTM Solar Cloud

I believe that she has palomino, roan, champagne and possibly cream?
OTM Solar Clipper

She has palomino and cream too, I think

Re: Belgian Colour Help. Part 2
This one is silver amber champagne. This simply means Silver and Champagne on a bay horse. Probably sooty, yes, so silver sooty amber champagne.Woodstock wrote:I have a batch of 4 new horses that I can't name and need help with.

No, she's gold champagne (= Champagne on chestnut). Can you see how Masda's legs are dark (dead giveaway for bay) while hers are light? The fact that her legs, mane and tail are almost white-ish means that she's a flaxen, not silver. Silver makes manes a more grey colour. She could be carrying Silver because her dam has it and Silver is invisible on chestnut and chestnut-based coats. So flaxen gold champagne.Woodstock wrote:Her foal Masda Past

First of all, palomino is not a gene. A chestnut with one Cream gene is called a palomino (bay + 1 Cream is a buckskin, brown + 1 Cream is a smoky brown, black + 1 Cream is a smoky black).Woodstock wrote:OTM Solar Cloud

To me, she looks very similar to Masda Past, just with Mealy (= Pangaré) and Roan. I'd call it a flaxen gold champagne pangaré or mealy flaxen gold champagne. Not really sure where the pangaré goes in order-wise.
This one is a palomino (explanation above) with Roan and Pangaré. So mealy palomino roan/palomino roan pangaré.
