I know the color, but what do y'all think??

looks red dun or grulla
what colour was sire? is mum homo for black??

I'll guess Brown Dun- but I don't know how old they are in the picture...that could change everything.

very true fledge

[color=#8000BF][b]Well, was waiting to post sire's color...pretty much a given then. lol
Dunno if she is homozygous black or not.[/b][/color]

I'm going to say dunskin.

[color=#8000BF][b]A few more pics...[/b][/color]

I agree this one looks to be a black or red based dun...cute face !

Hmm...so no ones guessed right?
Grey Bay Dun?
Grey Red Dun?
Grey Dunskin?
Grey Dunalino?
:mrgreen:

Well in the first couple of pics she looks red dun and in the last couple she looks bay based. She's not what I would expect for a brown dun foal. They "generally" have dark face masks and black dorsals hers is red.

I'm going to say she'll shed off red dun but I'm not positive about that one.

Gray?

I see dun and I am thinking maybe a black gene in there. But not sure what else. :? I could see how he may be graying??

I'm go Grulla, he's only a little creamier than Slim was in foal coat and I san see the silver coming through. He's lighter, but then Slim shed to a dark slate grulla.
Maybe with cream.

I will be very surprised if this foal sheds off to be grullo. Grullos generally have a very buff colored foal coat. This foal has too much red in its coat. However there has been a case of a foal everyone swore was red dun shedding off grullo however those cases are very rare.

bay dun.

[color=#8000BF][b]Ok ok...he's a grullo!! This is the 2nd colt from these 2 that produced a red dun foal (when born) & then shed out grullo.
Now I dunno if he'll go gray or not...its a possibility. This pair has had 2 bay roans (fillies) & 2 grullos (colts).
His sire is the same as my gray filly.

Well ok then I guess I get to be surprised!

:laugh1 :rofl

I win! :booty :rofl
I probably couldn't have got it based on the first pics but with the second ones I saw the silvery white color of the small shed area on his rear and neck and the blackness around the nose and eyes.
Do you know if he has cream? I'm curious how many of those "white" grullos do.

[color=#8000BF][b]Dunno where you get cream from...his sire is a grullo/roan/gray dam is black.[/b][/color]

Either parent could easily be cream.

Has this one been tested?

yes cream on black doesn't really show (and definitly wouldn't be able to tell on a grulla gone grey!) but some people say it will show on grulla and make them lighter. I dunno, was just curious. And with the horse coming from dun lines it's easy to get cream along with that in the pedigree and noone notice.

What does everyone think of the white streak in his mane? I thought it was baby fluff in the other pics but looks like it's permanent.

That is VERY odd. I hadn't noticed it. I guess maybe I thought it was a section of frosting... but that's the only bit? Seems unlikely. Hmmm.

[color=#8000BF][b]Ok here is the '07 full brother to the colt I posted.
I don't have any baby pics though, but they were both born red dun & shed the same way.
Summer of '07[/b][/color]

Also looks a bit dunskin to me. Hmph.

[color=#8000BF][b]I'm tellin y'all Sneeker's foal's colors keep ya guessing.
They're all different shades & colors.[/b][/color]

I want to know too...
Was the original foal in the thread tested?

[quote="Fledgesflight"]I want to know too...

[color=#8000BF][b]As far as I know none of his foals have been tested for anything.[/b][/color]

I think its the grey that is playing tricks with the colours but I agree from the first photos he looks black based not red based where the foal colt is shedding.

I think lipi's right. Gray plays that game.

First foal looks to be goin grey??

All I can say for sure about this fella is that I wouldn't kick him out of my barn :love
