What color is this filly?

I know that it's a Varnish Appaloosa, but rest? The dam is True Breeding Brown Appaloosa, maybe it's brown?

EDIT: I can register her in following Breeders Clubs: Bay and Brown, Dun, Appaloosa.

Brown dun, unless the stallion is bay or wild bay? Got a link?

Bay Dun Varnish Appaloosa

I dunno

Amber Champagne?

No, she doesn't have the champagne speckles on her muzzle. The spots are from the Appaloosa gene. Not a bad guess, though.

I tend to agree with Baya. She has to have At from her dam, but if she got dominant agouti (A) from her sire, she is a bay. She doesn't look dark enough on her neck to be Ata. Perhaps, depending on her sire's genetics, she might be AtAt, which would be lighter than Ata. Then she would be Brown Dun Appaloosa

There is two possiblities
Bay Dun Varnish Appaloosa
Brown Dun Varnish Appaloosa

Now if you compare a bay dun appy and a brown dun appy with varnish

Brown dun varnish appys:

Now you can have a brown dun with one copy of Sty or two copies of Sty or no Sty

Bay dun varnish appaloosa:

The whole Sty thing is the same with the brown dun

Now with my appaloosas i try to avoid varnish

See how that last mare looks almost white? Its becuase she is varnish, it may not say it in her color description but she is.

That mare is also varnish even though she is not color tested

That is probably the simpliest way you will find it

It's actually the roan causing a lot of it not varnish. I rerolled her to show less roan and you can see she really isn't very pale.

The not color tested mare is a roan cream and champagne that's why she is so pale.

Whoops.... Got my stuff wrong

pinestables · Dec 3, 2015 10:45 PM

I think I should test this mare when I get more money.
This filly's dam is, as I said, True Breeding Brown Appaloosa and sire is Gray Sabino, probably with Red Dun.
