Sunny is my 2yr old colt that tested homozygous red, hetrozygous Silver and Negative for SB1.
What I have yet to test him for is LWO as its in the breeding and he has a blaze and 4 white socks. Sire is a buckskin and dam is a silver bay and Sunny is/was (lol) a really rich red with a very flaxen mane and tail.
Anyway I have not shown him so have planned to take him to a show Sunday week and he has been out on grass since last December so it more then a little pudgy.
Anyway he had coated out to a lovely summer coat and I "thought" I might get away with just trimming his beard and feather but alas no such luck so had to start a full clip. I was horrofied to see this apricot looking coat underneath and I thought oh great now he is going to look wishy washy :BH so just got on with the job of clipping (he was quiet as a mouse) and only when I was totally finished I stood back to see how he looked and it was then I thought OMG he looks like a palomino :o
Now maybe its just the clip job but now I am wondering if he is one of those really red looking Palominos?? I know you have put some pics up of horses that have tested positive for cream yet look Chestnut.
Anyway here is the before pic (oh excuse the fat and the feet - farrier coming next week and he is on a diet :lol: )

Here are a few shots of him with the other two boys - they had to play once I put him back in as they were fascinated with his green rug lol

Amazing the difference a clip can make but he is definitley NOT Palomino!!
Again, this is Rabbit, Red Dun, NO cream, and not clipped.
