Sero is a 1/2 Clyde and 1/2 TB, and is almost 2 months old. Hes almost finished shedding his bright red/copper foal coat. Seros got mostly dark points, his mane is mostly black but intermixed with some chestnut hairs and his tail is a black and white skunktail.
I have a topic up for his sire Duke (no one can tell me what he is, not even the vet) but his mum is a brilliant sorrel colour.
His coat (now that the fluff has gone) is a deep red mostly, but on his front legs the colour is a bit more mousey brown and his topline is black from what I assume is a sooty thing, it fades as it spreads downwards.

Front and back legs:

And finally full body (this photo makes him look way skinner then he is :( )

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. I'm kinda working backwards with this to help figure out what colour his sire Duke is too..

[quote="Danni"]Yep, just bay from me too :D
And yeh splash/sabino I suppose too, most clydeys have them. Not that has anything to do with his light tail though.[/quote]
I wonder if the light tail is indicative of him becoming a roan? His dad (Duke) is a roan so maybe he'll follow suit? :bounce

I took some more photos today. Interestingly his black stockings on his front legs are actually chocolate (the back ones are definatly black tho)

Re: What colour is Sero?
Sero, imho, is still in his foal shed and will be a sooty bay with splash. You won't see his true colors until his yearling shed next spring, but all indicators are for a bay Clyde. The "odd" coloring is just foal "camo" to "hide" them until they are large enough to outrun most predators.
