What color horse do you get when you breed a perlino to a bay?

The color you will get will depend on what the parents genetics are exactly. You have to know exactly what the parents are Heterozygous or Homozygous for and if they have any 'extra' stuff hidden in their genetics. However you will likely have the best chance at getting a buckskin foal, palomino and smoky black are also possible options.

How do you breed the bay color in a horse?
You kinda can't. Just breed bays over and over again, but you are not very likely to get a bay every time.
Can you get perlino with a chestnut stallion a perlino mare?
No, If the stallion is a true Chestnut this is not possible. Because you would need to breed two horses together that carry at least 1 cream gene each. The Perlino has 2 cream genes and so will give her offspring one cream gene 100% of the time but the chestnut does not have one. The possible outcome of the resulting foal would be one of three colors, depending on the genetic makeup of each horse, A Palomino, A Buckskin, or possibly a Smoky black. It is easier to understand basic horse color genetics if you think of horses as three basic colors; Black, Bay and Chestnut. All other colors including gray being a modification of those three.(There are studies being done regarding Brown but this would really confuse this issue) In order to breed a Perlino you must understand what a Perlino is genetically. A perlino is a double dilute of a Bay. A Bay horse carrying 2 cream genes that modifies it's body color. A bay horse that carries 1 dilute or cream gene would be Buckskin. Therefore we can go further and say a Cremello is a double dilute of a Chestnut horse (chestnut that carries 2 cream genes). A Chestnut that carries 1 dilute/cream gene would be palomino. A Smoky Cream is a black horse that carries 2 dilution/cream genes. A Black that carries 1 would be smoky black (looks like a black bay typically) Today there are labs that will give you the genetic color of your horse for a nominal fee (around $50) From this information you can judge with a great level of certainty what colors are possible from that horse when bred to other horses. One such lab is UC Davis. There are many articles on the web that can go even further into color genetics. Breaking the horse's color down into Agouti and Extension genotypes. With some practice and basic understanding of this genetic formula for horse coat color, breeders can know instead of guess the possible colors of the foals they produce. This has been an invaluable tool to breeding colorful horses.
