Do you see dilute?? (Dam of Double Dilute??? foal)

Islands Celebration I know we really need to test for cream, but with her double dilute?? possible baby on the foal page.......do we? I have had her on here before asking if you all see dun, most said looks mostly to be strong counter shading. Pictures taken last summer. Owner's description: Has dark on face white spot/snip on nose and also hind leg near hoofline stripes on back rear shoulder stripe dorsal mane and tail are dark brown like legs golden eyes light cream muzzle [img]http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/giddyupminiacres/Islands%20Cele…] [img]http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/giddyupminiacres/Islands%20Cele…] [img]http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/giddyupminiacres/Islands%20Cele…] [img]http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/giddyupminiacres/Islands%20Cele…] [img]http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/giddyupminiacres/Islands%20Cele…] [img]http://i201.photobucket.com/albums/aa54/giddyupminiacres/Islands%20Cele…]

When I had her on here before......everybody said she looked "brown".

Question.....what makes some of you think buckskin right off? She has several other mares that are related and similar color to this mare (without as much countershading) so now we are thinking they may carry cream too? By looking at them, would we be able to know by eye color, muzzle, etc?

Oh then if we said brown before she is DEFINITELY a smokey brown IMO.

There's zero question she's cream. It's very visible on her. Unfortunately if you don't see the cream in this mare, I'm not sure how to tell you to look for it in the other mares. *shrugs*

[quote="Sara"]Are these the same pics we saw when we said brown? There's no way we would have missed the cream if we saw these. :?[/quote]

Yes, I think so and then from when she was a foal and yearling.

correction....it was the old forum and the previous year summer pictures. But still looked the same, ;)

She looks buckskin in those pictures too, even more so. :? Either brown or bay buckskin, I have enough trouble with brown, without the cream, to distinguish here :lol: But in all of them she looks like she has obvious cream.
