We still need some examples for the gallery/color pages. Feel free to post my email to any other boards but please use the image below as bots troll boards looking for emails to add to spam lists. Also, if you do post my email be sure to ask that they include photo credits.

No, I thought the same thing and considered it with this horse, but..same problem, I guess. Phenotypically indistinquishable from each other. You could put up a note about phenotype in the sabino section, in absence of tested SB1 or lines to known SB1 families, and the possibility of splash and/or dominant white to be considered.

In any case, I the green light on a rabicano example! This is Faa Fabadeena, a 2004 black Arabian mare. I'm waiting to hear back from the owner on how she wants to be credited (name, farm, url, etc.)

Oh lovely example!

I think RMT knows the owner of a rabicano Arab who is VERY loud. I'll point her this way. Can't hurt to show the different expressions.

I'm getting new Lace photos tomorrow so I will have some interesting things to add.

It was only labelled an Appaloosa mare. I thought it was pretty cool too. You can get them through a bunch of places, just google, and they will come up. These were from openstockphotography.com (contains the Wikimedia Commons images) and there is also freestockphotos.com and you can evn find a list: http://www.ozzu.com/photography-forum/c…" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

There are LOTS of them.

You can just take them from my Flickr account, I uploaded a bunch I thought might be helpful.

Belgian - bay roan + pangare example?

[img]http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3655/364…]

Bay + Pangare (and actually listed that way)

Sabino example? (probably splash too though) - listed under Shire horse

It just dawned on me. What IS this??[/quote]

I would say a bay or black varnish roan mare. The white mane could be nothing more than what's going on with Casey's mane going white--Lp causing the black hair to break/shed and get replaced with white hairs. (still waiting for the leopard picture to download before commenting).

That's what I was afraid of. I'm not sure I've found one at all. No fewspots or snowflakes either. I think most of the rest there have been good examples of, except for pearl - literally nothing there.

What about these guys - any hope?

Edited to add - never mind, I just got a good look at this top one and he can't be it

I think both of the second two would qualify even though neither are quite nose to toes.

It never occurred to me, but I have a photo of a true nose to toes leopard. I'd post it, but my website appears to be down (temporarily I hope). :roll: I'll post it as soon as it comes back up. I also have blankets and varnish.

NZ Appaloosas Sat, 06/20/2009 - 01:25

Bottom one--near leopard (at least what I and folk I know call a near leopard),

middle mini--could be a leopard...with our leopard mare (what you can see thru' the current mud and winter woollies), from a distance, she looks like she has black "socks", but when you look closely, you can see that the spots have just gotten really close together, and this mini sort of has that same look.

Top one--yep, another 'false' leopard--you can see where the base coat is mostly gone from the neck, but still lingers (but not like in varnish roan), so this is really a blanket with roaning appaloosa.

Thanks for posting those Maigray I never thought about open source photos /smacks self. I did some searching last night and may of them are on wikipedia. I was also reading through the GNU Open source licensing information and if I'm understanding things correctly even thought they are open source you are still supposed to show the licensing information. For the ones on wikipedia that won't be a problem because I can just provide a link back to the wiki page for the photo. I guess if we can't find the source we can always state. "Source not know thought to be open source if you happen to own this photo yada yada..."

rabbitsfizz Sat, 06/20/2009 - 10:10

Yes, Appies do not have white on the legs without something else present, usually Sabino coz some bright spark decided it helped expression and now a load of people have minimal Pintaloosas in their "Absolutely NO Pinto in them" Appies :laugh1

Daylene Alford Sat, 06/20/2009 - 12:03

Ok I got most of those added and a few more that I thought were interesting. These are the ones I would like to add but need source info.
