What color is my horse?

Just thought I'd share the newest addition to our ranch. Well, not "new" new. She's been here since January. I am curious as to whether she really has dun or not. So figured I'd inquire with you guys. I'm bad with dun and dilutions mixed together... Here is her pedigree: http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/the+dirty+martini She is EE, AA but was never tested dun. Dad was perlino and mom was dun pearl. Here are foal photos: [img]http://www.facebook.com/ajax/messaging/attachment.php?attach_id=26210df…] [img]http://www.facebook.com/ajax/messaging/attachment.php?attach_id=c2c0ce7…] [img]http://www.facebook.com/ajax/messaging/attachment.php?attach_id=887a36a…] Here are recent photos. Sorry, she was body clipped in the winter and her legs haven't shed out yet.

Nice! That's a unique combination that I haven't seen before.

those super pale horses can be so hard to see dun on...

I'm going to say yes on dun.

Anyone wanna put her in the pearl gallery? Owned by Heather Suto, photos by Robin Benefiel (me). :)

I second that!

For some reason I can't see the foal photos but I did add three of the other photos to the pearl gallery http://colorgenetics.info/equine/galler…

She is lovely, thanks so much for allowing me to add the photos.

I would guess Dun- I would

I would guess Dun- I would certainly test her for it...

Love her, so pretty! I'm curious as where the pearl came from on the sire's side, I thought Pearl horses in QH's were just in the Barlink horses which I see on the Dams side but not on the sire's. So can the pearl be in other QH lines as well?

I also could put one of those pictures of her on her pedigree on allbreeds if you would like Swinghorse...

Its from the mom. She's a dun

TheSwingHorse Sun, 04/29/2012 - 12:24

Its from the mom. She's a dun carrying pearl.

Martini is cream + pearl. :)

And sure, that would be awesome! :)

Well that makes sense, I was

Well that makes sense, I was just asking because on the pedigree it says the sire is pearl? Anyways I am going to ad the one of her trotting on her pedigree unless you have one you like better you would like me to ad. I love that one head shot of her with he mane in the wind but I thought a full body shot would be best for the pedigree.
