Filly fairy in Ontario last night

[Genie]

Dam is tri coloured pinto and sire is b/w homozygeous for tobiano.

I wonder if I should call the colour "smoky black"?

Her foal last year is the pinto shown below. Not really black and white, but I am not sure what to call her colour.

No use on the colour front I'm afraid -- just wanted to offer many congratulations on your pretty and healthy filly

Thanks for the expert feedback.

Is "smoky black" a correct colour term as well? and if so what makes these ladies "silver blacks"?

 

[RockRiverTiff]

Congratulations on your new girl! Your three yearlings are pretty darn cute too!

 

[bannerminis]

Yes, "Smokey Black" is a correct color. It is Black plus the Cream gene. It MAY discolor the Black somewhat, but will often not show at all. Silver Black is Black plus the Silver gene, which usually gives it a "smokey" appearance, but it is not genetically "Smokey Black".

Congratulations on your filly.
