[mini horse mania]

This is charlie sue ,a grade mini that I have had for quite a while.i purchased her with her buckskin/dun filly whom I do not know the sire of.i have thought charlie was a silver buckskin,but looking at photos is making me second guess..she is only a tad bit darker under all that hair,not silvery..could she be a smokey cream dun,champagne,or something like that? She has brown eyes,dark skin,a dorsal stripe which is slightly darker than her body.she does have some dark points above her hooves,thats it.here is link to a pic...anyone have any ideas?

Based on that picture, i'd say silver buckskin.

I have one looks the very similar , I did reg her as silver buckskin but now Im wondering if she could be black dun (grulla) , does the coat look like this?

 

[mini horse mania]

Yes but her mane is reddish

One more thing....does she look bred to you? She was bred to a 30 inch sorrel tobiano in march and april I saw him breed her,,, shes just not showing like my other mares.i havent seen her in heat either.this should be her 2nd foal.

and went back and looked, and may still have missed if you said... How tall is the mare? If the mare is quite a bit larger than the stallion, she may or may not show as much.

My AQHA mare didn't show uptil her last week or so, and she went 3 weeks over (I had ultrasounds and exact dates of cover, so I knew).

She is about 34 inches and stocky built...i guess she looks a tad bigger,but I do see her everyday.her last filly..is 2.5 smaller built,and 32 inches tall.

Being bred to a 30" stallion, so 4" difference, its possible that she won't show as much til later in her pregnancy.
