Re: Question on grey
In that picture you can defiantly see the gray. Flaxen chestnut going gray. Gray will often darken the legs before the horse turns white.
I think both the dam and the sibling are flaxen chestnut. The dam just isn't the right color for silver bay imo. I would expect the lower legs to be darker.
Re: Question on grey
If the mare has dark silvery roots in her mane and tail then shes silver, if its honey colored then she is just a flaxen chestnut, and that mare looks like she has an awful lot of white around her nose...does that look pangare to anyone? or is it just something else.I cant ever remember seeing a chestnut w/flaxen having that white of a nose but hey, I could be crazy. Also the sire could be a black silver or bay silver (I dont know what he looked like as a foal) with graying.
The second foal just looks chestnut w/flaxen imo.

This kind of silvery mane without silver is also common in Welsh ponies.

looks silver bay to me, also since it is not mature yet, it can still be changing colors some from foal coat to adult coat
