Re: Blue eyes on a Palomino foal?
Thankyou everyone.
We love him - in fact i love him sooo much i'd love to keep him LOL.
But we are going to sell him [i](as a gelding, unless an exceptional show/stud home comes along then we'd sell as a colt...)[/i].
I keep telling myself "you can't keep them all" LOL.
Thankyou re the info on the blue eyes - i had no real idea when they change colour.
Regards. :)
Re: Blue eyes on a Palomino foal?
IMO, as with so many things dealing with any foal, the rate/age at which the pali's eyes change varies by foal...Goldie's eyes were brown by 6 wks of age, but Delight was 3 months before her's finally lost the blue hue. All pali's I have seen have darkened by the end of foal shed - hope that helps.
Once the newest foal gets here, I'm thinking of doing a change comparison between Maya's foals (Goldie and
"WheneverIdecide2Arrive") and Delight. That way, I will see if the age of change is more of an individual thing or an inherited tendency between full siblings and 1/2 siblings.
