Oh cool, ok. I was wondering why I couldn't find it anywhere on the genetics pages. Thank you! I'm really new if you couldn't tell. Lol

I have a colour question. Is brindle a colour/pattern that can be passed on? I'm tempted to buy some brindles to breed buy if it can't be passed down I won't bother. It's ok I found my answer, sorry to jump on the post.

^Yes having brindle parents can increase the chances of a brindle foal, but it is very slightly. Brindle is not genetic and breeding brindles is very rare. But it's always a fun surprise when one pops up in your barn :D

Are you talking about real horses or game horses here? If it's game horses, having a link to their pages would be a great help. You can find the code for pasting that information at the bottom of a horse's Info tab.

If you're talking about real-life horses (and your use of APHA for the stallion makes me thing you might be) then we need to know more than the fact that the mare is a bay and the stallion is an appaloosa to have a chance to guess. The actual color of the stallion needs to be known, in order to have any chance of guessing the color of the foal. LLp is a pattern gene, not a color gene. The stallion probably has a 50% chance of passing Llp to a foal, unless he is homozygous for Llp. If he is, you can tell because he will probably have a white blanket with no spots in it. Is he bay, chestnut, palomino, black?

Thanks for the correction, Ammit.

Can you tell I don't really do much in the real horse world? :D

Anyway, we still need to know the color of the stallion's coat in order to make any reasonable predictions.
