I have a bay with amber eyes and was told that is a dun trait even though my boy does not have a dorsal.  I think you foal looks grulla right now but they can change a lot between now and the time their a year or two old.  Whatever she ends up being, she's a beautiful girl!

Lyric203 - 2014-04-11 5:04 PM To get a Grulla one parent has to be Grulla, by the looks of your little cutie she's a Smokey Black, she has the amber eyes that the crème gene will present if it passes on to the offspring and buckskins have one crème gene. Edited to add that you can send DNA hair samples to UC Davis and they will do color testing and give you the whole genetic color breakdown for you. I can't remember cost sorry!

 One parent does not have to be grulla ... a dun can throw a grulla.  (Our seal brown stallion has two grullas - both out of Red Dun mares)  If the stallion has the dun gene, it is possible.

Id say a brown or sooty buckskin though.

I have heard both that the eye color can mean a cream gene and the dun gene. The other three foals by the stud all have cool colored eyes and a cream gene. The stud himself has amber eyes so I don't know!

Pretty darn sure that's a smoky black. I'd put money on it. I have two of them. My last baby was exactly that color.
