Monochrome Horse Family

Postby Username Unknown » Wed Aug 13, 2014 6:25 am

Lineart not mine, as usual.

Umm, these are my dream horses, so that's why they're colored unusually. I'm aware that there is a breed of horse in which the standard color is the same as the mare's.

I don't really like the foal's coloring that much, I just made it a mix of it's parents colors. (And I know that horse genetics is different from human genetics, so that offspring coloration could be completely different from it's parents' colors.)

I wonder, exactly how rare are black horses with white manes? I've only ever seen a picture of one, and they're really pretty ovo

You mean as a breed? Or as a coloration? Here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rocky_Mountain_Horse

Haven't read my own link yet, but maybe it mentions it.

(I also happen to like Linkin Park, saw your signature. Bought that album too. :lol: )

Got to clicking the link and reading it,
The breed is known for its preferred "chocolate" coat color and flaxen mane and tail, the result of the relatively rare silver dapple gene acting on a black coat, seen in much of the population.


And the google images bring up black-white horses though...

As a coloration. I'd think it wouldn't be too common, but then again horses surprise a lot of people.
This was the first picture I've ever seen of one:

Yeah, I saw that same one, guess that's the flaxen mane. So it's really 'chocolate' colored, not black then? DUN-DUN-DUN!
