I had my black Arab, Twister, bred to a dunalino quarterhorse. She has three generations of black horses in her pedigree so she could be a homozygous or heterozygous black. The stallion is heterozygous for dun factor. I was wondering what color the foal might be. |

Actually, if the mare is a dunalino, that means she is a dun with 2 copies of the cream gene too. So, the mare will pass dun 50% of the time but will pass cream 100% of the time, so you do not have the chance of getting a black or a sorrel. |

I have heard dunalino used to describe both dun with one creamer and dun with two creamer. Dun+ Palomino and dun+ cremello. I have also heard dun+cremello as dunello, and Dun+Perlino as Dunlino, with out the a. The horseman term never gives you as much information as a genotype. |

I have never heard the term dunalino used to describe any color except dun+palomino. Megan the terms you used make more sense. |

The stallion is a palomino dun. He has only produced colored foals (red dun, dunalino, etc.) |

Then Megans first post is correct as far as the colors you can get. |
