Spin off-Which of these horses are silver? (lots of pictures

Thanks again guys on the congrats and well wishes...

NOW - when do we get the lowdown on which are/aren't silvers... :bounce

yes its nice to know how wrong you are when you are guessing ???? Cone on RMT played your game answers now please.

Oh she's out of town so she may not post until she gets back (in a couple days or less I think).

Ok everyone, sorry it took so long to get back to this. I wanted to let everyone who wanted get a chance to play, and after a week or so I would assume everyone has.

All have either been tested or ruled out by well known bloodlines.

A. Silver
B. Silver
C. Not Silver
D. Not Silver
E. Silver
F. Silver
G. Silver
H. Silver
I. Not Silver
J. Not Silver
K. Silver
L. Silver
M. Silver
N. Not Silver
O. Silver

Just goes to show you can't tell by just looking and / or guessing !

Okay, I got 2/3s of them right - so that isn't as bad as it could have been, although still not a "passing" grade - :rofl

It was not as bad as I thought I would be --- but could you give us the second part of the riddle ---- what are they!!!!!!

I strolled a second time through the pics and think -N- could be a champagne ....... he´s so glossy

A and B are both bay silvers
C is a liver chestnut
D is a black
E is a bay silver
F is a smokey black silver
G is a bay silver (see other picture at bottom)
H is a bay silver
I is a liver chestnut
J is a palomino (though admittedly he could be carrying silver)
K is a bay silver
L is a black silver
M is a buckskin silver
N is a black arabian.(see note at the bottom)
O is a black silver

This picture shows Gs color a bit better

N has been tested for every modifier and has tested negative for everything. The only dilution that he may not have been tested for is champagne. He is on the "New Dilutions" website under "light black".

Do you know if N has the mottled pinky skin of a Champagne because he could very well be a Classic Champagne (Black Champagne)...or anymore piccies ??/

Yes his skin is mottled. Albeit not as heavily as I would expect for a champagne (his boy parts still look dark), but definitely mottled. Kinda like the mottling you see on palominos. His eyes are amber too.

He is purebred Arab so he SHOULDNT be champagne. He is also parentage verified, and neither of his parents look champagne. If he is champagne hes a new mutation of it.

Here are some more pictures of him. He has no mottling on his face, and odd mottling on his genitals, and yellow eyes.

This filly is by the same sire as N (Ali Zeus) and her dam is a full sibling to his dam.

One headshot I saw of Zeus his lips looked faintly mottled to me.

They don't look it to me here [img]http://www.newdilutions.com/light_black…]

That horse really COULD be a classic or even sable (seal brown) champagne !!!

I can't see it in the dam or sire though..... :?

I must say that having looked at these horses they do not look like your classic Arabs however...JMHO !

Well he would be the darkest and the least mottled champagne I've ever seen. However since he IS parentage verified it is most likely a new mutation and thus not likely to follow the same rules as the original champagne.

He couldn't be a sable as he's agouti negative.

Sorry I didn't note his agouti status - but yes he does look very champers and not arab !!....all very strange !!

His skin doen not look champagne at all and like stated no champagne in pure arabs.

There are "no dilutions in Arabians at all"... yet here he is.

There is this new dilution they have found in arabs -- maybe that´s what´s standing behind .... otherwise I would vote for champagne

Going by pictures of the sire and dam its defiantly NOT champagne. Best guess would be a recessive mutation along the lines of pearl as to date I don't believe its appeared in any of his offspring.

Well if it were a new mutation (which being pure Arab it would HAVE to be) his sire and dam wouldn't have to have it. He does have at least one foal like him and at least one or two siblings VERY similar. If it were JUST him I'd write it off (despite it being VERY strange and very obvious).
