She is tobiano. I don't know if she is homozygous. I'm just wondering about colours it will probably be pinto anyway.

Cinder for the BP Pal X you can get black, chestnut, bay, smokey black, palomino, or buckskin. BP chestnut X black, chestnut,or bay. BP grey X without knowing the base color cant say for sure. Probably black, chestnut, or bay. BP bay X bay, black, chestnut, or bay. If the pinto is heterozygouse each color possibility has a 50% chance of bing pinto. If it is homozygous all will be pinto. On top of that the grey X will result in those colors having a 50% chance of going grey if is Heterozygous or 100% if homozygous.

I know nothing about color. Could someone guess on what color my horses are (proper term) and what color foals could be produced? Stallion - Brown body, red mane/tail, blue eyes, white snip on nose Mare 1 - reddish brown with black tail/mane/lower legs Mare 2 - Dark, dark brown with black mane/tail Mare 3 - Mostly white, with brown head, black and white mane/tail, one blue eye
There are so many terms and rules for color, I am just curious what I should call them and expect if the mares get pregnant.
If any of your mares or stallion are registered it should say on there papers what color they are. This could help in identifying some of the colors. They mares I can figure out the stallion has be a bit perplexed.
His papers say color & markings: black/snip/blue eyes/ black mane and tail. (although his mane and tail are red) One mare says black, one says bay. The other mare is not registered but I am thinking tobiano with some overo gene. We are planning to hardship register her, because her color and size are beautiful. (AMHA)
