What color is she Rabicano, bay tobiano, Roan????

mtgirl · 04-17-2008, 11:02 AM

I was just wondering what color you would call her. Sorry, I don't mean to ask a stupid question. I don't know much about color?

Her papers say bay tobiano maybe that is jut what she is, but I see roan hairs.

3 year old apha mare Fairly Easy Too
Sire: Cheyenne Sign papers say brown/tobiano and black/white/bay tobiano
Dam: Silver Coupe: I think she was grey

Bay Tobiano (minimal at that) + Sabino (which gave the face white) with either Rabicano or Sabino roaning.

I would bet that she is bay going gray. They would paper her as a tobiano but she is tovero genetically.

My guess is Bay Tobiano and Sabino. And she looks to me like she's going Gray.

Wow! Will she change from bay to grey?

She looks to me like she will personally. She has that grayish tone to her color that a lot of graying horses have.

Im gonnna say Im not so sure she will go gray. I dont see any of the tell tale gray signs. and she is getting to the point where she SHOULD be showing them, but its possible.

She has not shedded out yet and still has the winter fuzzies. I am not sure if that would make a diff or not.

Hmmm, a couple of the pictures do seem to indicate that the face is starting to gray, but some don't. I don't see gray around the eyes, which would nearly always be there at this stage. How old is the horse? Do you have any older pictures of her?
