If I Put My Palomino Mare With A Bay Or A Grey What Colour Possibilities Would The Foal Be? Thanks Everyone!!

Palomino x Bay

Palomino
Buckskin
Bay
Sorrel
Black
Smokey Black

As far as palomino x grey...depends on what the grey's base color is. Do you know what color he was before greying out?

Palamino is
ee AA or Aa or aa plu Cr
Bay is
EE or Ee and Aa or AA
You can get a black
Ee aa
Smokey Black
Ee aa Cr
Bay
Ee Aa
buckskin
Ee Aa Cr
a sorrel ( only if bay is NOT homozygous for black)
ee ( Aa or AA or aa)
a palamino
ee (AA or Aa or aa) Cr

Palamino with grey depends on what color the grey was BEFORE it became a grey. Grey is a base coat modifier so there is a different coat color underneat, but at a minimum you have a 50% chance of getting a grey colt and if the horse is homozygous for grey you will have a 100% chance of getting a grey.

Good point Top Dun!

If the bay is EE, cross off palomino and sorrel from the list.
If both the palomino and the bay are AA, cross off black and smokey black from the list.

Adding on to what PrettysQtrs said.

Palomino x Bay (if Bay is Ee Aa and Palomino does not carry Agouti)

25% Palomino
25% Sorrel/Chestnut
12.5% Bay
12.5% Buckskin
12.5% Black
12.5% Smokey Black

Palomino x Bay (if Bay is Ee Aa and Palomino has one Agouti)

25% Palomino
25% Sorrel/Chestnut
18.75% Bay
18.75% Buckskin
6.25% Black
6.25% Smokey Black

With the gray, it all depends on what his base color is. The foal will have either a 50% chance of going gray, or 100% chance. If the gray has one non-gray parent, then it is a 50% chance.
