Ok, I'm stumped

I'm trying to picture her with no white, but that isn't helping lol. What color is she? They call her buckskin...but that just doesn't seem right to me. [url]https://www.blm.gov/adoptahorse/horse.php?horse_id=3554[/url]

maybe seal brown with creme? and maybe roan...dunno if it's just the winter hair or not...lol

Cutie though!

Smokey brown if I ever saw one... that muzzle is classic. If it did not have the cream gene most of you would have called it brown. :lol:

[quote="RiddleMeThis"]I could see it being buckskin.

Darken this a bit and add some roaning and you would have the OP horse

FWIW, just to nitpick (you know I love ya... and you know I know how you feel about brown :rofl ) but this is smokey brown as well.

Well now that I check he is listed as dark buckskin (both on his page and morgan colors) but he DOES exhibit what you would call a smoky brown phenotype :twisted:

Just when I think I am getting SOME sort of handle on this colour thing you go and throw Smokey brown into the mix :BH I would have called that Smutty Buckskin :oops: :idea: :roll:

I'm going with either Dun, sooty buckskin or smokey brown roan. From least likely to most likely lol

Are we looking at the same horse?
The one with the very dark head, and brown lip liner and Roan Pinto body.?
The one that is quite obviously dark Buckskin Roan?
That horse?
Or am I looking at something different to some of you? :sign

Nope Jane, same horse - and the same old brown vs sooty bay issue at play--what is and what isn't...lol.
