I've made my best guess with these guys, but I'm not 100% sure, so would someone be able to confirm/correct these for me?

http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/13037 I'm pretty sure this girl's a black bay?
http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/13578 Is this mare a brown dun? She looks quite reddish to me. :/
http://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/8986 And I'm 99% sure this guy's seal brown?

It seems like no one wants to reply here anymore. O_o

Im not perfect in guessing horse colors but after no one takes a look here, I try to help you.

First one looks like a dark brown dun. Second is a bay dun and the third is indeed a seal brown or just brown, thats the same.

Thanks so much!

I'm not super familiar with duns, so I wasn't sure if Tiffy was bay or brown. And I didn't even notice the stripes on Zena's legs! Good eye. :)

Zena is pretty dark for a brown. I did not see any brown horse thats so dark here on the site. I even wasnt sure if shes black but the brown on her muzzle definitely speaks for a pretty dark brown. The dun is also seen in the dorsal stripe on her back. Its pretty noticeable if you look close. Glad I could help you =)

Brown had get quite dark here. I think Zena is probably an good example of dark dark brown.

Hello everyone.

I thought I'd stop by because one of my horses really has me stumped. I'm actually not bad with genetics and coat colors, but I'm more curious about her because I've never seen her color on any other purebred forest horses.

She's probably not going to be around much longer (already in her 20s) so here's a screencap of her color. Anyone have any ideas? Maybe a fluke? She won't reproduce herself so she's the only example I have.

She looks like a Mealy Dark Chestnut with sooty (on her shoulders) too me.
