Foal on the Way!!!!

Postby horserida05 » Fri Sep 29, 2006 1:30 pm

Im so happy. I have bred my horse for the first time.
type Kasha4 in the pedigree search box. this is the stallion I bred my bay mare to. Do you think the foal will be grey?
I love my Standardbred Riverton Happy Gal

Kasha only had one grey parent, so he can only be carrying one copy of the grey gene, and therefore has a 50/50 chance of passing it on.

If he does, you get a grey baby, regardless of the dam's color.

Good luck! :D
