Grey manes?
While breeding some grey horses I have noticed a few differences with the greying effect of their manes and tails.
The tails always end up very white as the horses get old but the manes don't. Some horses don't have any greying in their manes while others get slightly grey (but not even nearly as white as the tails). I was just wondering if there are any grey horses in the game that end up with the same grey/white colour on both their manes and tails, without any other effects like varnish roan, which tend to make the manes almost white on grey horses.

Re: Grey manes?
This I believe is actually a bug. I thought I'd fixed it a while ago but I noticed its still happening. I haven't had a chance to look into it again yet. The mane should always go grey like the tail once the horse is old, however you can get different effects like you've noticed with some horses getting a partially grey mane.
