Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
Thank you..
She looks smutty buckskin. But, she is dark. The tan comes up from under her front legs, her buns and under her tail. She also has the tan color that appears to be under her darker coat on her chest area.. :HB

Wow I would have guessed agouti based on that description, but nope, smokey black.
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..

Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
They just looked like baby cream blues that were beginning to turn to me (getting that hazel look that often comes when baby creams turn amber or brown).
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
She seems old enough in the pics I would have thought the baby hue would be gone... Id like to see some current pics of her.
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
Oh I thought she was just a weanling in the photos.
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
This filly is a weanling. Where are you seeing the pics? Can I post using tinypics? I am new here and will see if I can get some shots loaded up.
I will attempt on this post to get some early shots of her. I have one that shows her eye real well. [attachment=0]Mary walking.jpg [attachment=1]Mary.jpg[/attachment]

Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
Yes, definitely still young enough for her eyes to be changing. She does look like a young, faded smokey black to me.
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
I love that baby's intelligent expression. :love
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
What a lovely filly :flower - you can be very proud of her. :love
Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..

Re: UC Davis Color DNA results.. HELP..
E/e--heterozygous for black colour, can produce chestnut foal if breeding stock.
a/a--homozygous "negative" for bay, can not produce bay unless bred to horse carrying "A" agouti
N/Cr--has one copy of creme gene, will produce creme-carrying foal 50% of the time.
Translation--horse is a heterozygous smokey black. Can produce chestnut, black, palomino and smokey black if matched with similar horse. Cannot produce buckskin or bay without the use of a bay/buckskin or chestnut/palomino carrying the "A" version of agouti.
