What Color Am I? Contest
-
Let's have some fun. First person to post what color/patterns the horse whose gene test I put here will get a straw from the stallion the test belongs to. You're going for close to what the horse's color name says when tested, but word order doesn't matter, and if it's carrying something that won't show up in the color name (satin, for example), feel free to say so in the color for bonus credit. I'll do a few of these.
Example:
EE aa CprlC Dd gg Ff SS PP zZ Kitsb2Kit WF: Large
This horse would be black-based, carrying dun, silver, and sabino. So, Silver Grullo Sabino (carrying pearl too, if you want to say so).
If you can't use straws or the generation of the horse in question, we'll find another way to reward you.
Your turn! The difficulty will increase as this goes on, and the stallions will have niftier genes.
What color am I?

Flaxen Chestnut Sabino, but it's possibly liver. I'm not sure I can use straws. :P
-
Yep! And he is liver, though you can't tell from gene testing. Now you have someone to breed your liver girls to... he's up for live cover for 1 hb for you temporarily, Rose. Maybe you can get a black chestnut out of one of those liver girls you posted :)

PS If you CAN use straws, please leave your player ID.

That's very generous of you, but they're not quite old enough yet. :/ Could you possibly hold off on that until next month, or is that too much trouble to remember?
Should I start creating mares at four? :P -

Okay, thank you, Abbey. :D

You got it. I'm sending a straw to Sandy, since Baya already got one. Please give other people a chance if you've guessed one already, at least until I go through a few more.

Wow Abbey! Is his tail naturally that stunning or can you make them that way in the tack shop?

Silver Bay Dun Appaloosa (Pearl Carrier) is my guess.
Possibly Varnish or not, I don't think that shows up in the test results now does it?
Next person to post can win my breeding. I can't use straws or breed to Abbeys studs since I am not upgraded and our accounts are linked. Just thought it would be fun to play. :)SALVISTAR PERFORMANCE HORSES

Ah, sorry, I did think I wrote champagne, but just wrote classic, because it was a black champagne.

Flaxen Chestnut Sabino with sooty+ and carrying bay and brown. :P

Actually rose flaxen has to be capitalized for it to showLife is Special live it to your fullest
-
Oh, I thought that was just pangere. You can have it, then. :P
-
Ill send you a straw from one of my boys ^_^ you can pickLife is Special live it to your fullest
-
Actually Baya, for flaxen to show it has to be ff, not FF, it's like Satin, where it is not dominate, so it uses the lower case letters.
-
Well i still think its Brown sabino, or i could be wrong .-.Life is Special live it to your fullest

That mare of mine is a flaxen liver chestnut appaloosa carrying brownLife is Special live it to your fullest -
Oh, she's cute, Baya.
A horse has to be black based to actually show any of a bay color. This one is red based. :) -
Actually a horse would be bay based in order to show bay. :D
A horse with dominant extension E produces both red and black pigment. Recessive extension can only produce red pigment. Dominant E allows the black to "extend" onto the hair shafts, hence the name. That's why a red horse can have dominant A bay agouti but still appear red as it has no black pigment to work with. Also why a horse can be "homozygous black" but looks bay (ie has a red appearance to the coat) due to a dominant A which controls the distribution of the black pigment to the points. :D
This is a fun game. I can't wait for the next one to be posted! -
Rose is right, he's flaxen chestnut sabino. Rose, since you can't use straws, would you like one of his babies? What colors do you breed for, and can you use 5th gen? If not I'll hook you up some other way :)
http://hj2.huntandjump.com/horse.php?horseid=210374
I'm glad this is leading to some discussion about how the genetics work, that was my intent. I've learned SO much about color genetics from this game. :)

Also, a thing to note, if Style Points did have Extension (E_), he'd be bay instead of brown, because his A would cover up his At.

Im so exited about this filly. White 4 AND Sb3 shes intact and 5th gen. Im so exitedLife is Special live it to your fullest -
Baya, can we keep it on topic please?

Sorry. Im exited but that horse is probably a Brown sabino tobiano, heterozygous for satin, pearl, Sty+, and pagenreLife is Special live it to your fullest

Yes he is. Use that straw wisely, Baya, I usually hoard Cardiff's babies all to myself. He's given me 8 KP babies.

I am putting a 2 straw limit on this; if you've won two straws or other goodies it's time to let someone else win a few.
If you're lurking and afraid to guess, don't be... we don't bite. :)

That would be because I'm giving out the straws in batches when I have time. Patience, grasshopper.

Oh ok ^_^ hehe sorry abbey. Btw hes beautifulLife is Special live it to your fullest
-
Sooty sable champagne with satin and pangare?
-
Yes. While he carries pangare (someone correct me if I'm wrong here), it's recessive and he's heterozygous so it won't show... I'm pretty sure. It doesn't show that well on champagnes as far as I can tell, anyway.
He's super shiny though. :)
Can you use straws, and if so, what's your player number? If not, would you like one of his foals?
