What colour is my colt?

Aaaand another one, I'm not exactly sure what he is and im new at this.
I know he's got some snowflake spots and is some sort of champagne but he's maturing different than my other champagnes and getting pretty dark so I'm out of ideas.

Re: What colour is my colt?
You're correct. He has snowflakes and he is champagne (on bay, we would generally call this color an amber champagne with snowflakes, or something to that end). He also has pangare, or mealy (so that two would be added to his color name).PaliThePancake wrote:https://www.horseworldonline.net/horse/profile/2907407

That white line along the bottom of his mane is also an indication that he carries a 'plume' gene. A rather little, known gene that colors the bottom and upward of either the mane, the tail or both and can also frost the ankle areas.
Because he has the Lp gene (snowflakes), he will discolor differently from your other horses because of the Lp varnish gene. So some areas will get bright, others dark and it'll also change the color of his mane and tail do varying degrees. As he varnishes, you may also see spots that are currently hiding under his coat (if he has any).
