White spots appearing on ears...

Chilli is sabino/splash/frame medicine hat, with sabino roaning everywhere except for her ears. When I got her (September 08) she had one tiny white dot her right ear. I never gave it a second thought, but now I've noticed she has 2 new spots on her ears. They're small, pea size at best. Would sabino cause this? Here's a pic from the 2nd day I had her...I'll try to get new pics asap. [img]http://i143.photobucket.com/albums/r147/RustiZoomZoom/Chilli/Chillisear…]

Oh...and if it matters...the black skin around her lady parts has small white dots on it also...and her udder is black and pink. I have pics of these (from when she was preggo) if they'd help.

Yup she's a mustang. I took pics today. I also discovered that she has 2 spots I never noticed before that are a different shade of sorrel than the rest, and they have no white hairs in them. They're tan colored. I got pics earlier but don't have time to get 'em up right now, gotta go pick up dinner. Pics later.

Ok here's the pics. So I lied about her ears lol, they do have a tiny bit of white hairs on them, but they didn't last summer, and what is there now isn't enough to make a visible difference unless you're looking at them up close.
The 2 spots on the right ear

Spot on left ear, which meets up with one of the 2 discolored (tan) spots

The other tan spot, it's on her rear, directly out to the right of my top finger

Her only other white-in-color spots, on her chest and the left side of her rear

Her heaviest roaning, on her poll. I just find it really odd, because all of the other places where her color meets white doesn't blend like this...it's clearly cut with thick halos (i.e. bottom pic..).
