Cremello or Perlino?

Post by bluemoon »

I'm not sure if this guy is a Cremello or a Perlino or if he is something else?

Looks like Palamino Pearl as shown here http://s70.photobucket.com/user/Totina_ ... 0.png.html

It's neither.
The colt has Cream and Champagne (on chestnut base), the colour is called Gold Cream. I haven't seen any Arabian with Pearl yet. It's a very rare colour, it can hide under base colours and does exist naturally only in NABs. You can easily see the Champagne by the freckles at his mouth. BTW the colt's dam is perlino, and the father gold cream as well.

As Djeraya said, he is Gold Cream, but he also has one copy of the gene for tiger eye, which makes his eye look light green instead of dark brown (which a normal Gold Cream would have without any tiger eye genes).
