ISO Fleabitten Arabians

Post by Hidalgo »

I'm searching for fleabitten colored Arabians (not sure if that's the term used here, but it's what I've always heard them called). I'm not too concerned about stats, but I don't want more than on red. I'll pay 10-20K, or if your horse is worth more, let me know. Here's an example of what I'm looking for. https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2748014 Although I'm not picky about mane and tail colors, I do prefer longer/fuller mane and tails.

The colour is called fleabitten grey (usually only grey). ;) There is some arabians I found on market and are for sale (they usually get little spots when they are around 10 years old :) ):

I just love that colour (my favorites are grey on black, grey on bay and grey on seal brown) :) My longterm project is to breed that colour in my herd to get more realistic looking lipizzaners, I already breed few Lipizzans in that colour, but not enough ... I really like that foals are born in their base coat colour and turn grey when they are adults :D

He is quite a beauty, and he is a flea bitten gray, but he’s not quite what I’m looking for since he’s not purebred Arabian. Thanks, though!!!

Thank you for searching those for me! I think maybe they didn’t come up in my search because I limited my search to 14-15 hands (I kind of don’t like all the giant Arabians, lol) Do you know if the graying gene always produces the flea bitten gray look, or is it something a little different?

In my experience almost always (fleabitten grey gene is dominant over "only" grey gene). Little spots become more visible when horse is about 10-12 years old. I don't like giant horses either ;)

I may have a few flea-bitten-gray mares; just check out the foaling pasture on my farm.
Ping me if you see any that you'd like.

Edit: I found this stallion on the market: https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2385573

Thanks! I do like Unusual Lullaby, if you’d be willing to sell her to me. Unfortunately, someone got to the stallion you found already :( He’s Exactly what I’ve been looking for! I just need to check the market more often, I guess.
