Liver Reds/Chestnuts
  • Deathstar25
    What makes a Liver Red or Chestnut, Liver? I ask because I bought two liver boys and I'm wondering If I could make them just a Red Roan and Red Dun.

    These are the boys below

    It is called Dense Pheomelanin(DP) is what makes a chestnut a liver. Two copies of DP will make a "black" liver, which is like your top boy, and one copy will make a liver (your second boy). To make these boys red/chestnut you would need to remove their copies of DP.
    Here are two genetic guides that might help.

    Or you could look in the forum tab "genetics" or in the resources tab on the left.

    Just a heads up, you cannot remove DP. You would need to breed it out down the line.

    Actually, you need 2 copies of sooty and one copy of DP to make liver, so I believe removing a copy of sooty would also work. But it shouldn't be hard to breed the liver out, either way. Chestnut without liver is pretty easy to find.
