11 different genetic processes either "switched" on or off (including mealy effect, sooty effect, white patterns and patches, leopard complex, dun factor, diluted colors, champagne, and silver dapple) are necessary to create one single horse color!
I enjoy helping people determine the color of their horses, but when you email me, send me at least one good photo! Even though I love seeing newborn foals (who doesn't?) please wait until baby is at least three months old before we try to figure out the color! Email .jpgs only, please. If you want show your support for this color site, please buy products from:
