What color horse would you get if you bred a dun colored horse to a golden palomino?

Dun can be red dun, blue dun or dun. If we assume that the dun is A-Dndn or A-DnDn We know the palomino is --eeCrcr 50% of the foals have the Crème allele and therefore be dilute. 50% of the foals (if the Dun parent is heterozygous Dndn) will have the Dun allele. If the dun parent is homozygous dun DnDn all foals produced will be dun. If the Dun horse is A-Dndn and Ee at the extension site. 50% of the foals will be red based. This could be chestnut, red dun, dunalino (palomino and dun), 50% will be non-red. This could be bay, dun, dunskin (dun and buckskin) If the Dun horse is A-DnDn and Ee at the extension site. 50% of the foals will be red dun or dunalino 50% of the foals will be dun or dunskin. If both the stallion and the mare carry the true black allele a there is the possibility that a resulting foal could be a grulla or a crème dilute grulla. If either or both of the parents are color tested, the percentages would be simple to calculate. Examination of the parents, grandparents and any offspring produced would shed light on what the true possibilities are for this mating.


Where does the name Dunn used with horses come from?

The name isn't Dunn, it's dun, and it's a coat colour, yellow with black legs and a dorsal stripe down the back, with black mane and tail. It also comes from a legendary Quarter horse sire, Hollywood Dunnit. Many of his offspring share part of his name, usually Dunnit or Dunn. Actually, dun can be any color, but it is paler then most colors. yellow with black legs, mane, and tail is a buckskin. but a dun ALWAYS has a dorsal stripe, or its not a dun.


Why do dun horses have a black stripe down its back?

Because a horse's skin is either black, grey o r chestnut, that depends on the horse colour, so the horse colour is going to be a mix between them or one of them.

You breed a dun horse the same way you would breed all others - a horses color does not change the way they need to be bred, the only thing you would need done specially is if your horse has problems - previous breeding complications, tissue scarring, infections - but you would need to see your vet about those implications.

What is a old dun quarter horse?

OK, well old indicates that he is about 20 or more. Quarter horse is a breed that is used for mostly western events, because that is what he was bred for- roping cattle and other things the cowboys did. They have powerful hindquarters that allow them to jump into a run from a standstill, they are the fastest horses in the world (over a short distance), and they can stop and spin on a dime. Dun is an intense color with a hide that has an abundance of pigment in the hairs. The dun color is a duller shade than buckskin and may have a smutty appearance. Most dun horses have dark points of brown or black. Dun horses sport the "dun factor" points which include dorsal and shoulder stripes, leg barring, etc.


Does a buckskin have a dorsal stripe?
