Quarter horse do not have color patterns. A paint is not a quarter horse.

whats the diff between a paint and a tabiano

A tobiano is a color pattern you find in paints. You can have a registered paint with the tobiano, overo, breeding stock, etc. color patterns. There is no such thing as a tobiano quarter horse.

You cannot breed a paint horse to a quarter horse and get a registered quarter horse. A quarter horse is a quarter horse and a paint is a paint.

Is your quarter/arab cross mare registered 1/2 arab? If not, you may be able to register pinto. If you breed to an arab, you could register half arab.

You don't have to register the baby. Sure their are benefits but you can still get a quality foal that can't be registered. I'm sure we've all seen grad horses that look beautifull and purebreds that look terrible. Judging from the look of that foal you have you got a good one from that mare. She looks very nice for being that young, many times you see foals and they don't look like they are put together right yet, but grow up to be beautiful (or ugly). And you were lucky enough to get one that is pretty from the very begining. CONGRATS. I wouldn't be afraid to breed that mare again to a nice stallion. Especially if her temperment is right. If you want to breed for color that's fine just don't be dazzled by the color and forget temperment and conformation. I'm sure you wouldn't forget anyways, I just had to say it. GOOD LUCK!

Yes, I agree, the foal is a real beauty. I think we were all tryint to explain about this question:

Anyways my question is should I breed this mare to a quarterhorse chestnut tobiano stud ?

I know belle I just wanted to hit a different angle.

Yes you can have a tobino registered qh all you need is to have the parents to be registered qh the color is not what makes a qh its the breeding lines. Plus you can also register the colt as both paint and qh the reason i know this is that my uncle has his registerd as both.

Maybe we should all just go to the aqha website and read the guidelines. Blood qh's with pinto markings can not be registered as qh's. Go read it.

sorry ...last times' stud got gelded. This time I want something stocky looking. I would love a paint or tabiano or w/e the heck you guys call it. The reason I think i'll breed to this stud is because my dad is friends with the owner and it will be cheap. My mare is an awsome mother, she even taugh the above filly to unly poop in one corner .. lol. anyways i can just walk mom down the rd to breed her...no trouble you? I just want a backyard horse.

i bred my grey arabian with a paint qt horse and we got a beautiful paint/arab. I don't know what his marking would be called he is half brown and half white with a black strip in his mane and tail and a black mark on his back leg. I was told I could register with the arabian or the paint. Anyways the man that had the paint we breed with said what to look for in a stud paint is see how many foals he throws that are paint compared to solid. His as of last year average 21 paint and 1 solid. Lots of luck
