quick question about the gray, how do you know the foal will gray out? is the dam homozygous for gray?
 
WOW! She will be beautiful when she matures!

Thanks for the compliments on our lil girl!!!!

She is the really striking black that doesnt have the normal shading that black foals have when born and when you look really close she has grey hairs around her muzzle and eyes. Greys generally are born with the more striking version of their color rather than the washed out color most foals are born. Last yrs foal was a really strange but neat colored buckskin filly and she didnt have any grey hairs on her at all to start with but since she was such an unusual and very sharp color we knew it was going to happen. Here is that foals pic to show what I mean:

Do you have any photos of the buckskin as a foal? Did she seem to get darker as a yearling?

That black one is so pretty! Love the mare too!
