Post by t0xickitten »

I am new to the game and horse genetics, in general. What is this boy considered?

Looks like flaxen gold champagne. That's champagne on a chestnut base.

Does not appear to have any sooty. He looks a little dark from the underside, but not enough for me to say that it's sooty. It appears it's just shadow. Are you questioning a specific area for sooty?

The shadowing you refer to had me thinking it was sooty. Thanks for the clarification! :)

I have another that I'm having a hard time determining. I think there's at least Dun?

Smoky silver black... I think. I don't think there's dun. I don't see any dun to be passed onward from the parents. It is the silver that's making the black coat look so light.
I'm unsure about the cream gene. That would be the smoky. So this horse (and the sire) may just pop a palomino or buckskin at some point.

Silver Dapple Tobiano Leopard Snowflake?

Need help determining this Mare as her Colt (Code Breaker), I think is a Smoky version of her?

Yes, with tiger eye. Neither horse has cream.

Going back through, none of the horses in question have cream. They are all just Silver Dapple.
