Champange or not??

Firstly welcome Tasha, your post has been approved.

Yes, your mini looks to be a Gold (palomino) Champagne in the pictures you have posted. I presume that he has amber or green eyes and mottled pink skin also?

Where are you based BTW ?

I think he's a gold champagne not a palomino champagne as he'd carry no cream (parents don't have it to pass it on).

I'm no expert on champagnes though, I'd just love to own one :D

looks like the same color almost as my gold champagne TWH gelding I lost when he was starting to get his winter woolies his first couple of years (every year after his 2 y/o year he'd stay darker in the winter, but not as dark as summer coat)

Either gold or gold cream champagne. I lean to gold cream.

thanks heaps for such a quick reply :D
I wont call him a pally champange anymore lol thanks

he has Amber eyes and mottled skin everywhere took me awhile to get used to skin like that as i'm not a hugh fan of it!!
I'm based in South Australia

He looks to me like he might be champagne AND silver dilute :)

How are you seeing silver? Silver doesn't express on red base coats.

How do we know it's a red base?

If it's not a red based coat, then what does "gold" stand for in champagne language?

Gold is a red base, yes, but while we may see a gold with no silver, PPG may see an amber with silver. I'm just saying I don't necessarily think she meant silver was acting on red.

Aha, gotcha. I think she's a gold cream champagne.

So you think the sire could carry cream too? I thought if they carried cream and champagne (just copy of each even) that they can look like a dd except for the hazel eyes? Or am I getting mixed up with pearl?

wow its all very confusing lol glad my other horse is just a plain ole chestnut or is she? :shock:
:flower

No, the dam would be the cream culprit IMO.

I NEED an arab that color! Not fair. ROTFK&Screaming

I can't see the dam carrying cream but hey that doesn't mean she doesn't :lol:

A part arab silver dapple might have to do Jenks? Yes the hard part with the bigger ones is getting such lovely contrast like the minis.
I sure hope to breed one, one day!

Yes. Let me just get my order in now. :mrgreen: And it must be at least 15hh as I am 5'10.75" tall with a short body and cursedly long legs. At least a large girthed hoss is required.

His color is light like the silver champagnes are, besides I dont see cream in mom or dad (that is them listed isnt it)

Mom is a black base, cream would be invisible.

As someone with a cursedly long body and itty bitty legs, let me tell you how absolutely jealous I am. At least you don't have to double wrap your stirrups or ride in pony leathers.

Id love a champagne or black silver in a QH, sigh.... I can dream.... :love

Black silver champaign 3/4 arab, preferably with some chrome, 14.2hh with a pony like attitude please if we're putting in orders. lol.

Baby looks like a gold champaign to me
