Unusual Light maned bay

[Wingless Flight]

This little guy is a bay, but he shows a flaxen-like lighter mane tail and legs. At first I thought he'd grow out of it, but then I realized flaxen is only supposed to affect red. Seems like it is my first silver bay?

He has foal flaxen/ frosting. He will most likely grow out of it

Thank you

Another question, when does foal frosting dissapear? He's 1 year and 10 and a half months old and his mane and tail are still grey.

Ok, I'm confused... He's throwing flaxen foals as well as other bays with (even lighter!) grey manes. Is it silver or glitched out flaxen Black foals are looking normal, but I'll see if something happens. Furthermore, they only have adoption centre blood, so the silver gene shouldn't be present?

This is not caused by foal coloration (which he would have shed by 1 year), or by silver. It is a strange phenomenon that occasionally shows up in bays and buckskins. You can see it much more clearly on this horse (be sure to check out his foal pic). As far as I know, everyone is still unsure what it is or what causes it. It's possible it's a variation on gulastra plume, but honestly right now we don't know.

Thank you so much for this information! Settled that then

I wanted to add that its interesting because it affects the black on their legs as well. I'm probably going to experiment with it a little.
