Leopard Pattern Question
I've been keeping a nice bloodline of horses that only carry the varnish roan leopard pattern, however I've recently had a colt pop up that quite clearly has a blanket. Is it possible that his dam carries a hidden pattern gene? If so what could cause it to not be expressed on her coat as well?
Dam: Mustang 50%
Sire: BH 50%
Colt: Temp Colt
