Calling all you color experts

I have no idea what to call this color. . .not a dun or palomino. . .

Thanks

Could be palomino, or a silver smokey black (I have one

)

I'm seeing the silver gene though. I think also the cream gene.

Dam and sister are the same color. . .

My hunch is also smokey silver black

Our smokey silver black stallion just sired a double dilute foal. Pics of him for comparion below:

Hard to say for sure, but might help to know the colors of the parents and to see pics of them if possible, but I would say silver black judging by just that one photo.

Here is a Morgan mare who is a Silver Smokey Black.

Here's a picture of one of my previous horses, who was a silver smokey black.

Her in 2007 with her newborn filly:

Her again in either 2008 or 2009:

She reminds me of that stallion you posted.

Yes he definitely looks smokey silver black. Diane, you're right. It is the very same thing many people call chocolate palomino. Not close though as there is the black and silver genes involved.
