Dam is a dark chestnut, out of a gray(white), by a silver buckskin.

Sire is a Blue roan, out of a blu roan, by a gray(white)

I thought silver dapple, but the dam is a very dark chestnut, (so no silver)

so I dont know.

Congratulations!!! What a cutie.....she does look like a silver dapple right now.....but with all those graying genes who know!!
 
I suspect she'll whiten up tremendously. Look at those beautiful little legs! Maybe she'll be grey? Either way, how absolutely adorable!

You must have a grey parent to have a grey foal from what we have learn.Do you think her dam's dam was silver dapple and not grey.Our silver dapple filly is listed as a grey with AMHA, but she is a silver dapple

very cute foal.

Congrats on your filly.

Nope, I'm sure her grand dam is gray, she is completely white now.

The only silver in her ped. is her grand sire on her dam's side,

who was a silver buckskin.

Her dam is in the second picture and she does not seem to have any silver.
 
She looks like an adorable silver dapple to me (one of my favorite colors)!

Congratulations on your new baby girl!!!
 
Well what ever color she turns out to be she sure is a cutie!

She definatly is a silver.

You cannot see silver on a chestnut, so the chestnuts that carry silver can be just as dark as a regular chestnut, in fact about all the known chestnut silvers, I have seen where dark.

Also greys are born in a color grey is a modifier, it turns any color white in time, but they are always born silver, black, cremello, absolutely anything, so if dad is blue roan, the dam definatly carries silver, no need to test she has proven it with this foal from a black sire.

And a direct parent has to be grey to get a grey, it does not skip a generation.

Congrats on a healthy baby girl she looks very cute!
