Do you concur?

Post by Silverine »

I have a filly who is giving me a bit of confusion. At first I thought she a double cream on brown, but then I remembered that her mother doesn't have cream. She also can't be a double dilute because her eyes are too dark. So that means single cream and champagne from her dad on top of what looks to me like a bay base now that she's a year. So Amber Cream. But her coat looks a lot lighter than most amber creams I've seen. Is she just a light variant, or am I missing something?

Honestly, I'm seeing dun...you can see a darkened head and slightly off colored belly.

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Her mom is possibly homozygous for dun so it's pretty likely this girl has it, it's just super faint right now.
