Badger face

Snagged this from HGS, Normally I would say its just an odd tobiano and frame/splash caused face but this really reminds me of the thread about RA having a bend or type spot on her face causing the white to disappear. http://www.sdpbuffaloranch.com/details.php?id=2131" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I'm really not sure what causes it. It's quite odd. There is definitely no tobiano in that horse so something else is going on. I've got a collection of saved photos of about 10 different horses like that I've run across. None have had tobiano and I am reasonably certain none had frame either. That would leave me to think this is splash or sabino playing with... something unknown.

I don't find those sort of markings all that unusual with splash. I mean they aren't common but when I see them I just think oh another one of those funny splash things LOL. The Gypsy cobs get them a bit, not just with the tobi's so I don't think it's tobi fighting as you get the odd coloured leg too which of course tobi doesn't so much do. It's like there is something that comes along with splash sometimes and says where ever you are going to be I'm going to make you NOT, yeh so like you said a white supression gene. Maybe it's nothing to do with splash at all but it's seems to occur most often with splash type markings?
