I lean to perlino, but smokey cream is MOST definitely possible. Definitely not cremello IMO.

His legs aren't darker? The shot in the stall helps. It's hard to tell an SC in the sun. He definitely has that distinct chocolatey tone in the stall photo.

might be the camera as he looks all 1 colour in person...? certainly no obvious colour difference, not like those photos show anyway.

He is adorable - a real spitfire. :toast Imho, I would lean towards perlino too, something about that stall photo (sometimes the camera picks up things the eye doesn't see) gives the impression of darker legs (knees down) and ear tips, that I don't think you'd get on a SC (not that I've every raised one to know... :ymdaydream: ). He is definitely one I'd test...but either way, you do know he's Ee... :love

my first thought was smokey cream too but whatever the colour I would'nt mind having him in my barn!

Gosh isn't he cute!!! Congratulations!!! I'm not that good at the double dilutes, but I'd lean towards smokey cream too

i'm learning more towards perlino now, he is a few days old & he has a dark tone to his legs & ears, quite noticeable now, i guess the camera didn't lie just picked up things that the human eye couldn't see at the time, more photos coming ;)

My hubby has always called the camera lenses "'Mothers-in-law eyes': if there's a fault, it will find it, and if there is no fault, it will simply add 10 pounds..." :rofl

Anybody else notice how cute the horse lips are in that last photo?
