I think in order to be a gray---one of the parents have to be. |

   Location: OH | Sire is a palomino, but his mama is a roan and he produces a lot of roans through the back door. Mama is a chestnut in the picture. |

What color are the parents?
The track steward wasn't asking what color the parents were he just told them if they wanted the horse tho race, they had to get the papers changed. My friends were pretty astonished so i assume the parents were not gray. I can't remember that horse's name or I would look it up. |

Not doubting you, I just think that when sending in her application if I put gray they will spit it back to me because neither parents are gray. |

| If the horse carries the grey gene it will always show. Besides her tail is not grey, its creme colored. Palominos carry one copy of the creme gene and one of the red gene. If his dam was a roan there is a chance he carries a roan gene as well but does not show it. And if mom was sorrel/chestnut (genetically its the same thing its the red gene). So that allows your options to be palomino, red, or some form of roan if the sire carries a copy. The best way to know would be to pull hair samples and send them to UC Davis, they are quite reasonable for this testing and it usually doesn't take long to get results. I would honestly venture to bet she carries a copy of the creme and a copy of the roan, she's palomino in the first picture but you can see on her muzzle it's darker and clearly different (meaning that color won't hold and she will shed out differently). In the second photo she still has the palomino looking tail but looks more so roan. Again I would suggest UC Davis, then there is no more confusion :) |

Good Idea---thanks much. We drop a lot of babies and quite a few roans, just have never had one quite like this. |

Sorry---she sold within 12 hours of being born. Funny, I sent the girl a message and said---you didn't buy this filly just cuz she was a palomino did you---cuz if so---Houston, we have a problem. LOL. |

Common Sense and then some
         Location: So. California | She is nice! My guess is she is going to be a chestnut sooty palomino roan. Maybe she has one of those silver genes or whatever it is that makes the color go strange... |
