What kind of Champagne?
I know my filly has champagne but I can't figure out what her base coat is or if she has other dilution genes. The white points have left me clueless. Any help?

Re: What kind of Champagne?
The white legs are from flaxen. If she were to grow in feathers, they would be white, matching her mane and tail, not golden like her body. They're not from pangare. Pangare would offer a pale flank and eye and nose expressions near or matching the white coloration of her legs. Plus... pangare generally offers a 'wash-out' of the base color, not adding white to the base color. Think of mixing paints. Add water and you get a paler version, add white and you change the shade.Blostma wrote:I know my filly has champagne but I can't figure out what her base coat is or if she has other dilution genes.

Flaxen indicates she's red-based.
Flaxen gold champagne, pearl carrier.
That's my thought process.
