her dam is oddly colored, and her foals strongly show her.

I always thought Brown and Seal brown are the same.

Let somebody else verify, but filly is Silver Seal Brown and her dam is a Silver Bay

I'm with Baranduin Brewster on this one, I too, consider them basically the same. Of course, I've known some people to call the darker browns, the ones that appear to be black, seal browns.

I also agree that the filly is a silver brown and her dam is a silver bay. Both with double tiger eye.

As far as HWO is considered, Brown and Seal Brown are the same thing. Seal Brown is an older terminology and has generally been fading in usage in the horse world in general.

And yes, filly is silver brown and dam is silver bay.
