She must get the color gene from her Dam.

Re: What color is she??
Palomino is red based. That filly is definitely black based. Also thatβs tobiano, not overo. Her color is silver black dapple champagne tobiano I think?AHorseandPonyLover wrote:She looks like a, Palomino Overo Dapple.Cleoandmaddie wrote:What color is my filly?

Or maybe silver amber champagne dapple?

Re: What color is she??
The filly is a Silver Dapple Classic Champagne with tobiano (exactly what h0rsey said)h0rsey wrote:Palomino is red based. That filly is definitely black based. Also thatβs tobiano, not overo.

AHorseandPonyLover, since I see that you are very active on this forum, I would like to give you a few basic facts that you should know.
The Silver gene is only visible when the Extension gene is dominant (doesn't have to homozygous dominant it can be also heterozygous).
The Extension gene is the one responsible for the black pigment and as you know when the Extension gene is homozygous recessive (e/e) then the hairs of the horse are red. So in conclusion, since as I mentioned above the silver gene is only visible when the Extension gene is heterozygous or homozygous dominant, we can see that the Silver gene is not visible when the horse's base coat colour is Chestnut (e/e).
So this horse is definitely not Chestnut/ red based. In case you got confused with the name of the coat colour you said, Palomino is 1 copy of the Cream gene (Cr/cr) on Chestnut (e/e).
The second very important and basic thing that you should know is how to identify the Champagne gene. Figuring out if a horse carries the Champagne gene is super easy, all you have to do is take a look at the horse's muzzle and eyes. If you do that you'll see freckles. Sometimes it is slightly difficult to see them but in this case you can't miss them

The last thing is that as h0rsey said the horse has the tobiano gene and not the overo gene. Apart from that, the overo gene has not been implemented in the game.
I am trying to figure out what made you think of overo

First of all the Tobiano is the complete opposite of overo spotting.
Well, first things first, Overo is a term used by the APHA to classify a set of pinto patterns that are not Tobiano, that is literally the definition of Overo

A frame overo horse has white irregular patches added with a horizontal orientation. Markings often have a jagged shape (rather than rounded), the white rarely crosses the back and the tail's colour is usually unaffected. The head is (commonly) white as well.
A horse with the splash white overo pattern looks like he 'has been dipped in white paint', and the color splashed up from the bottom (it is not a common overo pattern). The head is usually white.
A sabino horse usually has a group of similar looking patterns. For example: (high) stockings on all four feet, often extending up the legs with jagged edges, a white head, with the pattern often going past the eyes, lip spots and white patches on the lower barrel.
While Tobianos have a vertical spotting pattern, large, rounded spots, white that crosses the topline but mostly white legs and white or multi-colored tail.
So Overos have a horizontal orientation while tobianos have vertical. Overos have white patches and the markings have a jagged shape while tobianos have large spots that are rounded. Tobiano crosses the topline while overo doesn't and also, tobiano affects the tail and makes it multi-colored while overo doesn't.
In this case if the overo had been implemented in the game and we had to figure out if the horse had tobiano or overo then we would look at these 3 things:
a. The markings are large and rounded
b. There are spots along the back
c. The tail is multi coloured
So if we look at these 3 things then the conclusion is that the horse is a tobiano and not an overo.
Hope this information helped a bit.

Re: What color is she??
Thank you for this information. Im still learning the Horse Color genes, like color mutations or more hard colors.Veterinarian wrote:
I have a base on the Horse Coat Colors, but im not advanced yet. (If need to be honest

And why i said Overo is, Emyln said Overo Dapple at first and i go on with that information(And i didn't look closer at first), i also know what is Tobiano, Overo or Markings on face, leg etc.
