Foal Coat, Silver, or ???
Post by Silverine »
So I have this girl.
I know that she's a black base with silver and leopard. What I'm curious about is the lightness along her muzzle and underside. With the horses I've had before this has been part of the foal coat and faded with age, but this girl is already 1.5 years old and the lightness shows no signs of fading. Can silver cause this? Is she just taking a long time to come into her adult color? Or is something else going on?

As far as I have noticed, some silver dapple variations include mealy-markings throughout their lives.

looks like pangaré, but maybe it's just a different shade of silver dapple according to her pedigree
Alpha ignis, signum astralis, flamma omega, multiversalis....

For the future, there is mealy (AKA pangare), which causes their muzzles and undersides to remain light throughout their lives (Extremely common with Belgians, especially those in the Adoption Center). This doesn't look like Mealy though, and looks more like an effect of the Silver DappleSilverine wrote:So I have this girl.
