No.... albino horses have no pigmentation at all, and this often makes their eyes red, and they are normally white. Cremello horses are like more a creamy colour, and have blue eyes( generally)
There has never been a verified albino horse. The gene is though to not exist in horses.

Are there albino pitbulls?
Any animal can show albino coloring.
What is the opposite of albino?
The opposite of albino is melanic.The definition of albino is being totally absent of any color pigment; so the opposite would be an abundance of color pigmentation.the opposite of being albino is not albinomwahahahaha!
How do you spell albino?
That is the correct spelling of "albino" (animal that is white, lacking skin pigment).
Are teeth and hair controlled by the same gene?
actually, they are not controlled by genes, but actually chromosomes. and they are NOT controlled by the same chromosome, unless you are an albino, in which case, a chromosome would take care of multiple genes.
Can two horses have the same phenotype but different genotypes?
yes.
What coat color is often mistaken for Albino in horses?
Cremello
Where are albino horses from?
They come as a mutation of sorts coming from the sire and the dam as carriers of the albino gene. Answer 2: It should be noted that 'Albino' horses, if it is a true albino, typically die at or just after birth due to having no intestinal tract. A true albino will have no color pigment to their hair or skin and their eyes will appear red. Cremello and Perlino are often confused with albinism in horses. Cremellos have a creamy to whitish colored coat with pink skin and blue eyes, their mane and tail may be the same color as the body or white. A perlino colored horse has the same coat, eye and skin color as a cremello but will have a chestnut or orange-ish colored mane and tail.
Are cremello horses rare?
Yes There arent many cremello horses so they are rare .
What does an albino horse look like?
There has never been a genetically verified albino horse. The albino gene does not occur in horses. There are two colors that appear albino. One is Cremello, which is caused by two copies of the gene that makes a horse palomino or buckskin. They have pink skin and blue eyes. Cremello coloration is common in many horse breeds. The other is dominant white. The horse is born white, unlike a gray horse that is born any other color and turns white with time. They have pink skin and can have blue or brown eyes. This color is a founding characteristic in the American White Horse, and the Camarillo White Horse. It is also seen in Thoroughbreds, Quarter Horses, Frederiksborg horses, Icelandics, Shetlands, and Franches Montagnes, and Peruvian Paso horses. Although, since it is a mutation it can occur in any breed or individual horse. These horses are not always necessarily completely white; they may resemble high-white sabinos in rare cases with fewer than 10% of any other coloration on their bodies - the coloration usually occurs over the topline, on the ears, in the mane, and in hoof striping. High-white sabinos, overos, and tobianos are sometimes confused for albino, even though they are not. Unlike true albinism, these horses are verifiable and reproducible genetic colors. Althought the colors are called "albino" by some people, none of these are true albinos.
The gene which causes chestnut horses to be palomino or cremello or bay horses to become buckskin or cremello is called what?
The cream gene Cr. Bay horses that are homozygous for cream are perlinos as opposed to cremellos.
Can you get albino horses?
You can get Albino Horses, but they are very rare. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- There has never been a genetically verified albino horse. The albino gene does not occur in horses. There are two colors that appear albino. One is Cremello, which is caused by two copies of the gene that makes a horse palomino or buckskin. They have pink skin and blue eyes. Cremello are common in Quarter Horses and Tennessee Walking horses. The other is white. The horse is born white, unlike a gray horse that is born any other color and turns white with time. They have pink skin and can have blue or brown eyes. They are usually only seen in Thoroughbreds. Unlike true albinism, both cremellos and white horses are verifiable and reproducible genetic colors. Though both colors are called "albino" by some people, neither are true albinos. you can get an Albino horse if you get lucky. i saw one once and didn't sell
What colour will you get if you breed a bay mare with a albino stud?
In the related links you will find a "foal color calculator" you type in the mares color, and if you know it, the genotypes, and the same for the studs. it will list all the possiblities and the chances of each color. I got the following: 58.34% - Buckskin 33.33% - Palomino 8.33% - Smoky Black However, I do not know your horses genotypes, so I would advise you redo it. Even if you don't know the genotypes, see what other chances you might get if your stud was a silver carier, or if your mare was heterozygous for the agouti trait. So do some experimenting and see what you get *Oh, and there is no such thing as an "Albino" horse. Cremello is often called albino. But had to let you know, because it doesn't offer Albino, it offers Cremello*
The gene which causes chestnut horses to become palomino or cremello?
The common term for the gene/allele that causes a genetically chestnut horse to be a palomino or cremello is Dilution. A palomino has one of these alleles, a cremello has two.
Was lone rangers horse an albino?
No, albinism does not exist in horses. The lone rangers horse (in the tv show) was a cremello. A cremello is a chestnut horse with two copies of the cream gene. This dilution causes the coat to turn nearly white, the skin becomes pink, and the eyes turn blue. In the new Disney movie the horses used were dominate whites. This is a genetic mutation found in certain breeds and family bloodlines. Dominate white horses have white hair, pink skin and brown eyes. The term albino is still used by horse people or non-horse people who do not know any better to describe a horse of pale color with or without blue eyes.
What color do draftes have?
Draft horses come in palomino, grey, cremello, black, and appaloosa.
Was there ever an albino Maine Coon?
If Albino is the same as white, yes.
Are white horses actually called white horses?
Yes, white does exist in horses. It is called 'Dominate White' and is a genetic mutation of the Kit gene. It causes a white coat, pink skin, and brown eyes. There are also other forms of white caused by the Sabino and Splashed white genes (this can also cause blue eyes instead of brown) . White is not to be confused with Grey where the horses coat turns white over a period of time. (They have grey skin under the hair.) Or Double Dilutes, such as cremello, perlino, and smoky cream. These horses have pink skin, blue eyes and an off-white or creamy colored coat.
