I will be slightly off for another week but I will not be completely absent from now on.
I'm about a third of the way through training him up. And I'm looking into crossing his parents lines from other offspring together, to see if I can't get another spread. Then perhaps we'll have some answers with which breeds offer the spread we're looking for.
The last few AC breeds I bred into was Belgian, NAB and Arabian, but I think arabian isn't in his line just yet. I'll work it up if I can get a second spreader from his line.
And then we can work on confirming the theory.

Yay! Thank you! I've bred one of my better coverage mares to him. Can't wait to see what happens.BlackOak2 wrote:He's up at stud.

Edit: Done for now, I promise. If the babies end up without neck coverage I'll work on breeding them together to get back there.

It looks like, so far most of the mares that are being bred to him are all black or agouti. A handful are chestnuts. So it's a good first breeding group.

All of mine are black except one or two that are bay, so hopefully I won't get any sneaky red showing up. I'll let you know when the babies drop.BlackOak2 wrote:Ditto.Silverine wrote:

Keep in mind that I'm just now breeding back into agouti from an all chestnut herd (not intentionally chestnut). But they do seem to be taking to the agouti decently well enough.Silverine wrote:

I did. A good majority of my mares should be EE. I know that most of my studs are.BlackOak2 wrote:Keep in mind that I'm just now breeding back into agouti from an all chestnut herd (not intentionally chestnut). But they do seem to be taking to the agouti decently well enough.Silverine wrote:

I am curious how he passes on the chestnut he carries as well. I didn't do much checking, but I believe he is an ee under the agouti, so I wonder how strongly his genes will pass on that agouti over the chestnut.
I suppose this will also identify whatever mares of yours aren't true EE.

If he was ee he wouldn't be bay. Homozygous recessive red (ee) overrides anything on the agouti locus. So basically homozygous chestnut is dominant over black. Any horse that is not red-based has to be Ee or EE.BlackOak2 wrote:Well now! ... I should'a known you did!Silverine wrote:
