Foal and adult pics if you have them would be great.

Thanks all,

Maria

I love Silver Dapple! This is Lil Lily in winter coat, (very dirty too) but you can see her blonde dapples in her chocolate coat



And this is Lil Lily in her summer coat just recently



She has more dapples and silver color this year. She just turned three so that could be because of her maturing colors or she has much better nutrition that brought out the silver and dapples. She was the one I drove 5 hours one way to get and then paid a ridiculous amount to rescue. But we sure love her.

 

[mrsj]

Beautiful, all of them. Silvers are my absolute favourite!

Thank you.

Sharpie (CheyAuts Write Out Loud) foal and shaved yearling (hard to see his spots in these pics, but the dark hairs are growing back now)

 

[CheyAut]

Still haven't come up with a name for this guy... born this month

And Shakespeare as a foal, yearling, and a pic his owner sent me from this past winter (he's a two year old now)

Here is a silver black pinto filly as a foal

and then as a 2 year old

Here is a silver black mare as a foal

And all grown up-she's a dark one

 

[ohmt]

And now a light one-silver black filly

And as a yearling going through her VERY ugly duckling stage and just developing her appaloosa characteristics

And another silver black mare-homozygous for silver and black

I've got quite a few silvers

 

[ohmt]

Here are a couple of horses that LOOK silver, but are not.

Black varnish appaloosa stallion-tested homozygous black, negative for silver

Bay Appaloosa Filly-When we clipped off her foal fuzz she looked very 'grey-ish' and we figured she'd get her color back, but she never did.

this is her pre clip

I see a lot of people with horses who they think have a silver, but don't, and a lot of people with horses who they think don't that do. Silver can be tricky sometimes!

 

[mrsj]

Thanks - so just out of interest are minis often homozygous for silver?

I think Silver Blacks are One of my Favorite Colors

[mrsj]

Absolutely beautiful, thanks

 

[Riverrose28]

I finally found a picture of one of my grandson and his silver dapple gelding. My grandson is Trenton, and the gelding is Bob. I have 12 grandchildren and 3 great grand children.

 

[rubyviewminis]

That is a beautiful picture!

 

[mrsj]

I agree, a really great picture. They look very content together.

Here's my silver dapple (Raffles in my avatar) as a foal, he has been away getting gelded but will be back tomorrow so I'll get some more photos then.

 

[Riverrose28]

Thank you for your kind compliments, yes they are very contented. In the winter when he "bob" looks like a chocalate palomino trent always says "I want his dapples back" Trent is going to show him this year again at the 4-h shows and county fair. He showed him at the Spring Fling in NC. This horse is almost as awesome as my beloved grand son, they are both gentlemen.

I know I'm gushing, but I so love my grand children, and my two year old grand son is also crazy about the little horses so I guess I'll have another addict in the family.

 

[mrsj]

Gush away!
