Apache is the only Overo I have now, since he is my only stallion....can't breed him to Overo (LWO) mares.

Most of my mares do carry Splash & Sabino tho.
 
I have 2 Splash Overos!

nice ones keep them coming.

So do you have better luck get loud pinto from your LWO?

Are the ones that throw the loudest pintos in your case solid lwo or neg lwo loud pinto?

I would love some loud marked pinto foals

I have one mare who had the black pinto(mia) for me in 2008 the black pinto filly dam (fancy) is homozygous for tobiano,so we know she will have color.

She(fancy) is bred to a appy Little Americas Silver Keepsake a stud I used to owned for april or may foal the foal will be pinto or Pintaloosa

I plan to bred this mare to my loud black overo stud for 2010 foal the foal will be pinto bay or black

I also am borrowing a red roan overo sabino mare for a 2010 foal:

Kaycee Freckles Playgirl (owned by Kaycee Miniature Horses in Iowa)

I have a few tobianos and solids that have blue eyes as well which is supposed to be an overo gene:

Maple Hollows Phlash of Fireworks

and Woodland Acres Dixie Chick (one blue eye)

it all Depends on the roll of the Genetic Dice.

Sapphire's Dam was a LOUD 50/50 (Splash X Tobiano) Color to white and her Sire was a Pinto

and look at her lol ;-) then there's Ember (Sire is Tobiano X ???? either Splash or Frame) I was expecting a Solid or Minimal Marked Foal - Proved me wrong
default_rolleyes.gif


I owned Sapphire's Half Sister Jazz, She is Homozygous for Tobiano but she only had 15% Percent White on her, When Jazz was Bred to a Solid Cremello her Filly had the Exact Same White Percentage.

I think for the Best Color Patterns - "Wildly Marked"

I LOVE the Splash X Tobiano

and the Frame X Tobiano

Sapphire is back in Foal for May and she is Bred to a Black Pinto (Tobiano X Sabino) it will be very interesting to see what she has :)

These 2 Splash Overo foals are sired by this our minimal Splash stallion. The only white he has is the snip. No other white.

Then for frame overos..

These are sired by a frame stallion that we no longer own. He wasn't real loud, so to speak, but pretty obvious a frame.

Here are 2 of his daughters.

wow loud pinto foals very cute.

my stud came from Kayla with Horseshue Miniatures in New York. He was bred by Laurel Acres.

He is grandson of NFC fire and ice

I have heard some solid with minimal white have very loud foals go figure

we have breed to pinto together and got solids. I have breed to two eyes pinto to each other and got brown eye foals as well

i have also breed two brown eyed miniatures and got blue eyed foals

And sometimes the opposite happens.

The overo color on our pintos all comes from Rowdy!

This gray frame overo mare (CC Call Me Awesome daughter out of Blue Boy bred mare) was crossed with our Tobiano/splash Rowdy/Buckeroo bred stallion (LWO-) to get this wild tovero who is turning gray:

The black and white head belongs to our gelding who is 3/8 Rowdy and likely also tovero (LWO+) but not tested.

All three have one blue eye - also from Rowdy.

You increase your chances of getting LOUD pinto foals, by incorporating as many pinto genes as you can in the breeding pair. For instance....Apache's sire "LTDs Moonstruck" carried LWO (Frame) Sabino & Tobiano...and possibly Splash. So, when I bred him to mares who also carried multiple pinto genes (LWO negative of course!) .....the odds are VERY high that you will get loud pinto babies.....which I DID most of the time. Here are just a sample of the foals I got from him. And Apache is well on his way of doing the same thing.

THANKS!!!! i guess i'll hang on to the palomino... but if i change my mind i'll let you know
default_wink.png
she would make a great dog. she is with you every step of the way. she was handled by 4-h kids before i got her. she is afraid of nothing and thinks you always should have her a snack.
 
Keegan! He carries splash and frame and I believe a dash of sabino. He could be LWO+ as I believe his sire is. I have not yet tested him. I just assume for now that he is. Both of my mares tested negative.

Hiawatha who is splash overo and sabino

I know Prism carries overo and splash as well. Please excuse the winter coat. I ended up having to shave her. She holds on to that thing till the end of time.

My big horse Tasai shows overo too. I will post her later as she is quite lovely.
