Would you say she's gonna keep a flaxen mane? I originally wrote "red" for mane and tail color on her registration app, but she changed to this...

WHat color is the hair coming out the tailbone?  My filly's tail was flaxen when she was born but is now turning almost black like her dam.

I will get a closer look at that today. Thank you for the advice!

Definitely not flaxen, it will darken as it grows out.

I agree with the others.  Not flaxen.  I would leave it as "red" on the registration application. That's close enough.

THIS is "flaxen".
