Why does it feel like no one likes greys? Why is that?

They dilute out all the pretty genes we throw on our horses.

Honestly that’s why I called them all. I’m probably gonna start a grey bootstrap herd but it will hurt me to see all the pretty genes disappear.

I love them, but like Pestilenttempest said it does damper down some pretty visuals, at times. My Mesa has plenty non fantasy grays that I enjoy.

I want to keep my fantasy and grey lines separate but it just stinks not many have an interest in them. I love greys

I have an exclusively gray line. Any pattern goes, just have to be homozygous gray. I love them

I used to really like watercolor with gray, but it made me sad when all the color went away. I love snowflake, but it's an issue with that gene, too.

I hope more will be interested in greys so maybe we can get like flea bittens and others

I just personally think they don't look good on this game even when I had natural colors only. But now with fantasy they do cover up a lot

I like grey in my Wrong Warp line, as they turn aqua, navy and then black. Pretty cool.

I would totally breed a grey line if they were a little more realistic—hyperpigmented foals, slowly greying out, with flea bitten or dappled or other grey patterns.

I like them but that's because they grew on me. I didn't initially like them that much for the same reasons other people mentioned but breeding a specifically gray line with no other pigment other than DP or sooty has been fun. Here are some of my faves (from other servers as my grays aren't on Forest). I recall seeing that grays will be getting an overhaul so they'll probably get more popular.

I don't mind greys at all but don't actively breed for them other than my love for Yule Log Ashes. I can't wait for when Ammit gets around to making them more dynamic.

I want to make a "unicorn" line that takes advantage of the greying process on black horses with Paintbrush Prism because I love the look of PBP on both black and white horses. For now I only have a few greys but am working on attempting it with horses with snowflake as they have a bit more of a dynamic change as they age.

They are so pretty

Hopefully, I can work on gray soon. :)

That would be amazing
