  • Color Coat Genetics
    Color CAMERoatICAN ≤UARTER Genet HORSE ics Sorrel Chestnut Bay Brown Black Palomino Buckskin Cremello Perlino Red Dun Dun Grullo Red Roan Bay Roan Blue Roan Gray SORREL WHAT ARE THE COLOR GENETICS OF A SORREL? Like CHESTNUT, a SORREL carries TWO copies of the RED gene only (or rather, non-BLACK) meaning it allows for the color RED only. SORREL possesses no other color genes, including BLACK, regardless of parentage. It is completely recessive to all other coat colors. When breeding with a SORREL, any color other than SORREL will come exclusively from the other parent. A SORREL or CHESTNUT bred to a SORREL or CHESTNUT will yield SORREL or CHESTNUT 100 percent of the time. SORREL and CHESTNUT are the most common colors in American Quarter Horses. WHAT DOES A SORREL LOOK LIKE? The most common appearance of SORREL is a red body with a red mane and tail with no black points. But the SORREL can have variations of both body color and mane and tail color, both areas having a base of red. The mature body may be a bright red, deep red, or a darker red appearing almost as CHESTNUT, and any variation in between. The mane and tail are usually the same color as the body but may be blonde or flaxen. In fact, a light SORREL with a blonde or flaxen mane and tail may closely resemble (and is often confused with) a PALOMINO, and if a dorsal stripe is present (which a SORREL may have), it may be confused with a RED DUN.

  • MFTHBA Horse Color Chart
    Section 5. Color Guide Some horses have several color patterns evident either visually or in their genetic makeup. Choose the color category which most accurately describes your horse. Look at the bold area of each color description. Your horse must fit that part of the description to be registered as that color. Should you need to further clarify subcategories of the color (when a computer code is not available) please do so in the markings details section. Because of past inaccuracies in color descriptions, prior registration papers do not necessarily reflect the correct color of parents, and the MFTHBA will try to work with members in establishing correctness from this point forward. BA: BAY – Red body with shades varying from light yellow tan to almost black. Must have black points: mane, tail and legs. Black Bay – Body almost black, or brown. Blood Bay – Body dark rich red color. BL: BLACK – Body, head, muzzle, flanks and legs composed of uniform black hairs. BD: BLACK DILUTE - Smoky Black – a black-appearing horse with a dilute parent (palomino, buckskin, cremello, perlino) that has the capability of producing 1) a palomino or buckskin when bred to chestnut, or 2) a cremello/perlino if bred to a palomino, buckskin or smoky black. Color can be verified through genetic testing. BN: BROWN – Body brown or black with light areas at muzzle, eyes, flank, inside upper legs; black mane and tail. BK: BUCKSKIN – Non-linebacked dilute color with yellow body. Must have black or dark brown points: mane, tail and legs. CP: CHAMPAGNE – A group of muted colors with underlying skin of pink or pale tan that may develop dark freckling on the genetalia and muzzle at maturity.

Visit APHA’s official Web site at apha.com. The Genetic Equation of Paint Horses Paint Horses are unique from most other breeds because of their spotted coat patterns. Their base coats are the same colors as those of other breeds, but super- imposed over these colors are a variety of white spotting patterns. The three patterns recognized by APHA are tobiano, overo and tovero. The ability to recognize these patterns and under- stand the genetics behind them is essential for Paint Horse breeders. Being knowledgeable about coat pat- terns helps breeders and owners accurately describe their horses. Understanding the genetics that produce these patterns helps breeders increase the proportion of spotted horses in their foal crops.

  • NFQHA Adheres to Breed Standards Cremellos & Perlinos Will Not Be Accepted for NFQHA Certification
    National Foundation Quarter Horse Journal ~ July/August 2003 NFQHA Adheres to Breed Standards Cremellos & Perlinos will not be accepted for NFQHA certification. In 1995 when NFQHA developed their certification criteria (i.e. Breed standard) for Foundation Quarter Horses, NFQHA relied on AQHA registration to eliminate colors that were not part of the NFQHA Breed standard. However, in March 2003, the 63-year-old AQHA rule regarding cremellos and perlinos was changed to allow them to be registered with AQHA. Aware that AQHA was considering this change, the NFQHA Board of Advisors, (at the 2002 annual meeting) voted not to accept accept cremellos or perlinos for NFQHA certification in the event that AQHA did in fact change their rule in March of 2003. Pursuant to that decision, and the AQHA rule change, the NFQHA requirements for Certification have been reworded as follows: “ Horses must be registered with AQHA; carry a minimum of 80% Quarter Horse blood as defined by NFQHA criteria; not carry the HYPP gene; and be a sorrel, black, bay, brown, grullo, chestnut, red roan, blue roan, dun, gray, red dun, bay roan, palomino, or buckskin; (horses possessing all three characteristics of pink skin, blue eyes, and white or crème colored coat are not acceptable).” NFQHA has been asked by cremello and perlino owners to explain why NFQHA choose not to follow the AQHA example and accept these horses for NFQHA certification. To fully understand one must first understand the differences between AQHA and NFQHA. AQHA is the largest horse association in the world, and, as such, represents a huge and diverse membership.
