Best Answer

Animals, including humans, have "rods and cones" in the eye that allow them to see color. Horses have some, but not as many as humans, so it is believed that they see color, but pastels. These colors would be associated with food, water, and blood.

What color horse should you get?

It depends on what color you like the most. The above answer is correct, but I would also like to state that a horses color is the least important part of it. You should first look at the horse and see if it has good conformation, a nice temperament, and can do the job you want it to do. Color is always the last thing you should look at.
