Gray.
Its depending on the mare's color before it turned gray! And on the dominant genes. But these colors can be possible: - Chestnut/Sorrel/Red Mare (Before it turned gray) 50% Chestnut that goes gray 50% Chestnut that stays chestnut - Bay mare (Before it turned gray) 29.17% Gray out of bay 29.17% Bay 16.67% Gray out of chestnut 16.67% Chestnut 4.17% Gray out of Black 4.17% Black - Black Mare (Before it turned gray) 16.67% Gray out of Black 16.67% Gray out of Bay 16.67% Black 16.67% Bay 16.67% Gray out of chestnut 16.67% Chestnut
brown So, white could mean maximum expression sabino or gray. If the mare has pink skin she is probably maximum expression sabino and her base coat color can be extrapolated (to a degree) from the base color of her parents and grandparents. If the mare is a maximum expression sabino amount of white will be determined by the genetics of the stallion in conjunction with the genetics of the mare. If the mare has dark skin she is gray. Gray is independent of base color...so the resulting foal could be any base color with a 50 or 100% chance of being gray. If the mare is gray Gg there is a 50% chance that the foal will be grey, If the mare is GG any foal produced will be grey. Again base coat color can be extrapolated from the parents/grandparents to a degree. A gray horse will always have a gray parent. The stallion is XXee as he is sorrel/chestnut again, looking at his parents/grandparents may lend information on his genetics at the agouti site and the subsequent possible color of the foal.
Because there is no true "Gray" color, but actually a base color that grays with age, one would have to know the base color of the dam (mare) before being able to give any sort of prediction of foal color.
Palomino stallion --eeCrcr (unknown genetics at the Agouti site) Grey mare ----Gg or ----GG (unknown genetics at the agouti or extension site) The color genetics of the mare may be better understood by looking at the parents and grandparents. If the mare is Gg 50% chance of dilute 50% chance of gray 25% chance of both gray and dilute.
The Old Gray Mare - 1913 was released on: USA: 27 March 1913
Like with humans you have to look at genetics. The dominant gene will trump the others usually.
Gorge Washinton did not mare anyone or anything. George Washington married someone named Martha Washington.
yes they mare dead as a dodo
According to Wikipedia, the color of the old grey mare in the folk song was really- grey, as it said nothing about any other color in the lyrics.
If you breed a black horse and a gray horse, you can get quite a variety of colors. If the gray horse has a black base (was born black), then the offspring will either be black or black-based gray. If the gray horse is chestnut-based or bay-based, however, you can get black, chestnut, bay, black-based gray, chestnut-based gray, or bay-based gray. It's most likely that the gray horse is black-based, though genetic testing would probably be required to find out for sure.
Depends on the color of the mare before it turned gray.When the mare was:Chestnut/Sorrel/Red25% Palomino25% Gray out of Palomino25% Gray out of Chestnut25% ChestnutFor the other combinations please check: http://www.animalgenetics.us/CCalculator1.asp
i got a cherry bay coat color Gray is independent of base coat color. If the stallion is heterozygous for grey there is a 50% chance that the foal will be gray. If the stallion is homozygous for grey the foal will be gray. If the stallion has only one gray parent then he is heterozygous. That being said, the base coat color of a gray/color of a non-gray foal can be partially extrapolated from the parents/grandparents/great grandparents.
