Hi all
I had a beautiful filly born yesterday (boxing day [in Australia]). She looks like a pally but has light eyes - bluish, hazel with pink rims and pinkish (not completely pink) nose and vulva and teats. Will all these darken eventually or is she a diluted foal of some sort. The mare is a definite palomino but the stallion is unknown as I bought the mare then found out later she was pregnant. Any info you can give would be most appreciated.
She looks palomino to me.
She looks palomino to me. Palis often have lighter pinkish skin that darkens with age. Single cream dilute foals also often have lighter 'baby blue' eyes than non-dilute foals. They should turn a brown tone with age.
