Sixth foal for High Meadow Miniatures

[High Meadow Miniatures]

HMM BTU GS Dun Deluxe

Foaled 4/23 at roughly 4 A.M and measuring approx 20".

It's yet another colt! The fifth colt in a row...Really need that filly fairy back folks

But we are thrilled with him regardless, it was a textbook delivery, he is healthy and quite a surprise when it comes to his coloring.

The sire is our BTU son, Boones Buckeroo Too Grand Slam, a solid bay dun. The dam is a smokey grulla Wittmaaks Mickey Mouse grandaughter with only a tiny star for markings.

He looks to be buckskin dun, and carrying either Frame or Splash overo. He has a huge blaze, two high stockings, dark eyes (possibly dark blue), eyeliner and the blaze doesn't cover his eyes...He is certainly one of the neatest marked/colored foals born here

Sorry for the bad photos...He is far nicer in person, and these were taken at just a few hours old to show his coloring. We could use some input on his coloring...Opinions appreciated.

Though you can't tell from the photos, he has a very nice head, long legs, strong hip and short back, I am really looking forward to seeing him unfolded.

Sorry for the long novel and photo overload...Here he is

I would say red dun!

He is stunning! I would be thrilled

Buckskin Dun. I would say frame especially since his eyes are darker blue but you won't know for sure until you test!

Congrats! What a cutie. Based on the pics, I'll say buckskin dun, but once outside in sunlight, he could be bay dun.

Very flashy. Love his coloration whatever it is. I tend to agree with buckskin dun. Love that white face.

I love seeing all the new foals but I have a thing for bald faces... Send him out to Az please! I say buckskin dun too.

Congratulations! He's a very lovely foal and his color is just icing on the Pretty Foal cake!

Congratulations on your adorable PINTO colt. Very neat color and pinto pattern, but you would need to test to see if it's frame or not (no test for splash). He has enough white on his face to be registered with the Pinto Association. Very cool!

Thank you everyone for your comments, and input on his color. I am hopeful that the weather will soon clear up so I can get him clipped and take some better photographs.

Love the white face and dark eyes!! What a looker! CONGRATS!!

 

[Field-of-Dreams]

I'd say buckskin, too. Gorgeous little guy!

I have to ask- trouble with the iodine?

 

[High Meadow Miniatures]

Yes, the iodine never fails to give most the foals a unique coloring
