The easiest way to breed a palomino is to cross a chestnut with a cremello. A Palomino will result every time. A palomino is a chestnut horse with a dilution that turns the chestnut to gold. You have a 50% chance of palomino when breeding a chestnut to a palomino. You have much smaller chance breeding a bay or other colored horse to a palomino. You have a 50% chance of palomino breeding a bay to a cremello.

If you breed a black horse and a palomino, you might get smokey black. This color looks almost like black, but tends to be slightly browner. This horse, however, will be able to produce offspring who are smokey black, buckskin, and palomino in addition to other colors, because it carries the cream gene, which is responsible for those colors.

This color combination can also produce buckskin, black, bay, palomino, or chestnut, which are just as likely.

50% chance of a creme dilute. The potential base colors are unknown as there is no information here on the main color of the paint.

The type of paint, Overo, Tovero, Sabino, Tovino, Tobiano and the chances of white spotting patterns depends on whether the spotting alleles can be/are homozygous or whether there are multiple alleles present a different sites.

To insure that a palomino colored foal is produced 100% of the time one parent should be chestnut and the other should be a cremello (a genetically chestnut horse that is homozygous for Creme).

There are several spotting patterns.
If the desired spotting pattern is Tobiano one parent would have to be homozygous for the To gene to insure that the foal would be Tobiano as well.
If the desired spotting pattern is Leopard then one of the parents would have to be a few spot leopard (Homozygous for the Leopard Complex).
Overo coloration can only be produced at a rate of 50% without the possibility of producing a lethal white foal.
Splash white and sabino can be homozygous and produce 100% spotted individuals expression is
variable.

Palomino and Grey are dominant genes at different loci and are inherited independantly of each other.

Any foal produced from this mating has a 50% chance of being grey. Without knowing the initial base color of the grey horse prediction of the underlying color could be determined in part by looking at the coat color of the parents and grandparents.

The base color of the palomino is --eeCrcr (alleles at the Agouti site are unknown) and the foal produced from this mating could be bay, chestnut, black, smokey black, palomino, buckskin depending on the genetics of the parents at the agouti and extension sites.

For example:

If the palomino is heterozygous for bay and black at the agouti site its genetic

makeup becomes AaeeCrcr.

If the grey is --eeGg...the mating will produce 100% red based foals either chestnut or palomino (50% chance of either color) and 50% of these foals will also be grey.

If the grey horse is --EeGg or knowing the alleles at the agouti site of both the parents will help determine the probabilite

If the grey horse is --EEGg no chestnut or palomino foal can be produced.

In my opinion, red and blue look rather good on palominos. I imagine hunter green could work too

You would have a 50% chance of a grey foal and a 25% chance at either a Chestnut or Palomino foal.

You can breed several colors to get a palomino. Including Chestnut and cremello, palomino and chestnut, palomino and cremello. Those are the three basic ways to get a palomino colored horse.

Safe to breed palomino horse to grey colored horse?

Yes, it is safe because horses of any color may be bred with horses of any other color. It does not matter. Any horse can be bred to any horse as long as the two breeds are of similar size. Frankly, a gray Lipizzaner may be bred to a dun mustang as long as they are of similar sizes.


Is a palomino horse on a diet and what kind of diet?

As far as I know a palomino is a colour - particularly in certain breeds. A palomino horse is just like a bay or a grey horse. Particular diets are made if the horse needs extra feeding/ concentrates/ supplements etc. And that depends on the amount of work and what the work is, the overall health (if there are any deficiencies) and what improvements need to be made - such as if the horse needs extra fat or digestible energyin its diet.Unless you are talking about a particular 'palomino' breed which needs specific nutrition (and even so the horse wouldn't be on a 'diet') there is no specific 'diet' for a 'palomino horse'.


What color do you get when you breed a bay horse a grey?

50% chance of Grey. The base color will be determined based on the genetics of the parents at the Agouti and Extension sites.


What two horses make a gray paint?

Color is decided by genetics and nothing else. To get a grey paint you must breed at least one grey paint to another paint horse. Grey tends to be a dominant color and may override another color. The surest way to get grey is to breed two grey horses together.(And Paint is a breed, pinto is the markings.)


Which horse breeds can't come in palomino coat color?

In attempting to answer your question, this is just a start and I will add to my answer at a later time. Arabians, Thoroughbreds, & Standardbreds are never palomino in color - unless they are crossbreds, that is one parent is a different breed of horse and has the proper recessive gene that enables the production of the palomino color. Friesians and Clydesdales are never palomino. Also, the Andalusian and the Lippizaner are always born black or grey, and turn light grey or white with age. Interesting note: 20 years ago I saw (in person) a bay Lippizaner at a show. The owner said he was a throwback, which is very unusual, and amazing. I hope this answers at least part of your question; there are 267 breeds of horses, and I will do reserch on this, and add to my post as I progress.


What color do you get when you breed an gray horse wiht a gray?

It varies with the horse, but generally you will get a dark grey colt or filly. This is because the genes of the darker horse will make your foal a darker colour but the lighter of the pair kepps the colour from becoming completely black. Example: Cremello Stallion x Chestnut Mare = Either buckskin or palomino.
