Do you have any pics of her before her eyes and skin changed color?

GiddyUp Sun, 08/22/2010 - 18:38

No, I don't....sorry. I can see if her breeder does and will post if she does.

Looks Isabelle palomino to me, but only an extension test will tell for sure... I know some Isabelles are so light they are mistaken for max sabinos or even greys, so it is very possible...

I don't see silver buckskin because there are NO points at all and there should be even on the lighter silver buckies..

My very pale isabella palomino (one copy of silver) had pink skin and green tinted eyes when we first saw him at 4 1/2 months old.
His skin on his muzzle and around his eyes changed from pink to mottling than to a light toned grey. Right around the eyes his still has mottling as well as on his genital area and under tail. I must admit, his mottling wasn't large like that on the filly though.

So I am guessing we can call her a silver palomino? But to test to be sure.

Mom looks silver buckskin with her hair grown out but in her show/clip pictures she almost looks grey, but can not be grey. But would you call her a silver buckskin?

The picture below the picture of the dam, is that not the filly?

Okay, duh it's another of the dam!

I agree with Isabella Palomino (test for Silver to know if a carrier) for the pictures of the horse on the top.

Hang on ! Whoa girls ! What on earth is an Isabelle palomino ??? I have never heard of it ? Lol!

Right I just googles it , all it really says is a pale palomino named after princess isabellas discoloured underwear! But does this palomino carry silver then?

The horses pictured by Velásquez show a beautiful, rich Chestnut with pinkish manes and tails, so I have NO idea where the idea that Isabella favoured cream Palominos started, but there you go!
silver Palomino would not be a good description as Silver does not show on a Cream or Red base, so I think Cream or Pale Palomino would be OK, but, having said that I have seen foals born this pale (clipping really does NOT help!) turn out a real rich gold.
