Hi I am new to the forum!! I am stumped on the color of my filly!! I thought black, then gray, now I think maybe brown. She is from a chestnut mare and a black arab stud. She has a half sibling that is a colt from the same stud. The dam to the colt has had three colts by this same stud. one was sorrel one was black and turning gray at two years old and this one seems to be sorrel I will post a couple of pics of him also so you can maybe figure out my little filly's color better. Thanks in advance. The sorrel ones are her half sibling the little sorrel colt. Any feed back will be appreciated!! I have looked at several web sites and she looks like so many that I just can't figure it out.

I would have said brown going grey, but if the dam is chestnut and the sire is black then grey is not possible. You must have one grey parent to get a grey foal.

I am not sure that the stud was not grey. The other mare, the one that had the sorrel this time is the same color as my mare and her 2nd foal by the same stud was a black and she was graying out quite quickly by the time she turned two. So I don't know because I never saw the stud. Only the mares, I only know what I was told about him.
