Show us your coat colour changes from birth you adult if you can.
Please explain the birth colour ,parent colour etc so people wanting to learn about colour genetics can see.

Born Pally

At 3 months old you can already see he's started to grey.

This is my taffy colt who went through lots of changes in under 12 months.

First born


Then his orange foal coat slowing coming out with dark underneath.



His fluffy creamy winter coat.



Then with it clipped and summer coat growing out.



Then at 10 months old and coat grown out.



I wonder what it will do next!! Although I think he'll always go a bit pale in the winter and that chocolate colour will be his normal summer coat.
Cheers

Wow Samm! You wouldnt think Tap was born Pally looking at his older pics with all that black mane & tail!! I thought he musta been a bucky - I have never seen a pally to grey transformation, do they always grow black hair?

Don't know Sassy.He started to grey very quickly.His grey father had black mane which is getting lighter with age of course.I assume its come from him.
This is his father

Taps tail is white with a few golden hues through it.
Some interesting colour changes there everyone.
Surely we have some more to see???
