Your horse is a Strawberry Roan. Chestnut base + Roan

A strawberry roan is always a chestnut, because it refers only to horses that are chestnut with roan. So the 'chestnut' in 'chestnut strawberry roan' is redundant ;)

Thank you both! I knew she was in the chestnut color category, but after that I was completely clueless. :P

Oh no worries, horse genetics can be quite dazzling :P But it is big fun, especially when you try to breed for certain colors, looks or breeds :) Oh and don't be afraid to ask questions, I and many others (who often know more than I, lol) will gladly help ;)

She's Flaxen too (white mane+tail). So flaxen strawberry roan ... But that might be uneccessary info :P
Possibly even Mealy but yet again it's probably unccessary info.
