| Senior Member+ | It kills me to have people talk about pages in a thread! I have my settings such that this thread is only 5 pages long - 30 posts per page. Someone needs to take a little Happy Pill and come back when things are looking brighter.

| Senior Member | Debbie Z., the "truth" is a relative thing and changes with our knowledge of genetics. For example, it was once thought that two chestnuts would always produce a chestnut. We know now this is not technically true. If two Pearl carriers get together, they can produce a horse that appears to be similar to a Palomino. The base is still chestnut, but the horse is also a dilute, something recently thought impossible. This mare: http://www.newdilutions.com/pearl/Paint/peaches.htm is out of two chestnut horses, both carrying the Pearl gene. I admit, I found your posts confusing, simply because of the fashion they were written in, but you seem to be talking in absolutes. There are no absolutes for white patterns; there are "most of the time", "usually", and "commonly", but the white patterns are a funny thing. For example, most Tobianos have four white legs, but some do not. Here are some examples: http://www.coloredhorses.com/tobianoswsolidlegs.html We are learning more and more about color genetics every day. A book that was accurate last year is probably not this year. Many people on this forum spend a great deal of time being as up-to-date on this knowledge as they can be. Since coming here, I have been trying to learn more and be more up-to-date myself. That said, yes, some things you can only be sure of if you test, but if you know the signs and have the experience, there is no reason you cannot make a strong, educated 'guess'. You do not always have to see the parents or know the breed to determine a color. Can it help? Yes, but it is not always necessary. Please, there is no need to shout or be rude. It does not help to make others believe you or side with you. The picture of the foal was placed here for us to enjoy and discuss openly. Personally, I think she is absolutely beautiful and very striking. I would love to see more and better pictures of her sire and dam myself, just for my own pleasure.

| Senior Member+ | Wow that blows my mind how a baby with such color (she is absolutly gorgous) can come out of two parents that lack such "pop" *HaHa* Genetics are so interesting **doing punnet squares in my head right now** HaHa.
