Guys Does this guy have DP?
-
I normally wouldn’t even care but I got him and a cherry drop side by side and I’m super confused now.

This is a cherry drop I found.

I'm not much of a DP expert on bays, but we know that the Cherry Drop is non-sooty and homozygous DP, and that foal looks to be about the same color as your non-sooty bay, so he might be, though I'd be surprised if a random create would be homozygous for DP.
I hope someone with more experience with DP bays can step in and give another opinion.De gustibus non disputandum. "There's no arguing about tastes."

I am not that great at it either and really need to learn as my secondary account breeds for DP in bays and browns, so I will be following this conversation.
Here are some helpful links that I reference quite a bit as I am learning:

I'm not 100% certain he's hom, but he's almost undoubtably het for DP. Good eye!ID 45703 | he/himOpen barn policy - no closed lines! I'm always selling straws and eggs from anything I have that catches your eye, don't hesitate to PM me and ask!

I’m thinking he might be het DP. He pretty closely matches this horse in the first link that is a non sooty, het DP.

Your boy is a touch lighter, but we know that het pearl can cause a slight lightening of the coat. But he is definitely darker than the non sooty, non DP example of a normal bay. But I don’t think I would call him a true brick red hom DP either. -
So he’s het at least. Possibly hom but pretty much I’ll only know for sure if I try to GMT him or breed him?
-
I’m thinking he is het, yes. But I am no expert in bay DP.
-
Ok thank you.
-
I'd say het. We know Cherry Drops are hom DP, but the wild bay dilutes them a tiny bit, making a homDP Cherry lighter than a homDP true bay. This is a Cherry with normal bay, no sooty, still hom DP. It makes him a true blood bay, for now. I plan to GMT him more later. Lol

Your colt is het DP. I've had Hom DP creates though, so its not impossible.
