There has never been a genetically verified albino horse. The albino gene does not occur in horses.
There are two colors that appear albino. One is Cremello, which is caused by two copies of the gene that makes a horse palomino or buckskin. They have pink skin and blue eyes. Cremello coloration is common in many horse breeds.
The other is dominant white. The horse is born white, unlike a gray horse that is born any other color and turns white with time. They have pink skin and can have blue or brown eyes. This color is a founding characteristic in the American White Horse, and the Camarillo White Horse. It is also seen in Thoroughbreds, Quarter Horses, Frederiksborg horses, Icelandics, Shetlands, and Franches Montagnes, and Peruvian Paso horses. Although, since it is a mutation it can occur in any breed or individual horse. These horses are not always necessarily completely white; they may resemble high-white sabinos in rare cases with fewer than 10% of any other coloration on their bodies - the coloration usually occurs over the topline, on the ears, in the mane, and in hoof striping.
High-white sabinos, overos, and tobianos are sometimes confused for albino, even though they are not.
Unlike true albinism, these horses are verifiable and reproducible genetic colors.
Althought the colors are called "albino" by some people, none of these are true albinos.
i think a cremello is an albino
cremello and albino are not the same, do not get them confused. if an animal is albino, it is has no pigmentation in it's skin, or it's eyes; this makes it's eyes look red. cremello horses have blue eyes, which requires pigment in the iris, and therefore they are not albino.
There has never been a verified albino horse. The gene is thought to not exist in horses.
There is NO SUCH THING AS AN ALBINO HORSE the albino gene is not present in a horses genetic makeup of any breeds.
It may look like they are albino but they could be a cremello with another dilioution gene in it not an albino.
There are genetically white horses, usually thoroughbreds. They have pink skin and can have either blue or brown eyes, but they are NOT genetic albinos.
ok....im an Olympics rider, grand prix, and a Rolex rider...you may know me you maay not know me but everyone does mostly...there is an albino horse but they are very rare...they are the ONLY white horse...any other horses that you calll "white" are called greys
But yet horses have no natural 'pink' skin which is a characteristic of ALBINO animals, just like their eyes a light pink, or a light blue, and pink skin visible on the nose of the animal, genitalia, ear tips surrounding the eyes.
This goes for all Albino animals, be it Horses, dogs, camels, cats, llama's, etc etc
and what is the name of this Albino horse then???
There is a certain overo gene that causes a horse to be born all white called the Lethal White Foal syndrome because the foals never live past a few days. This gene involves an underdeveloped colon and lack of pigmentation (they are somehow connected, however we do not know just how yet). The underdeveloped colon leads to constipation, and the foal is normally put down as soon as Lethal White Foal syndrome is diagnosed as it is the most humane thing to do as opposed to letting the foal slowly die of constipation.
So, yes, the "albino" gene (it is actually a type of overo gene) is fatal.
Albino does not exist in horses. Most people confuse true white and Cremello for albino.

like a albino snake with dome normal colours on it so like albino and normal
a person or animal that lacks pigment in their skin, hair, and eyes would be albino.
Yes, the people who are albino (with black parents) will inherit their parents features and look like them along with the same type of hair but will have white skin and albino eyes.
yes there is it is a very white type of chicken.
at my house, in texas, we have small albino lizards that roam the back porch area everynight. they are about 4 to 7 inches long and are white with a light speckled look to them.
When their eyes are light blue They almost look albino
like a albino snake with dome normal colours on it so like albino and normal
albino giraffes are white and have pink eyes just like blind guinea pigs that's what they look like
Like blonde Swedish people
white with red eyes
They look nothing like Chris brown cause they are Albino.

Horse Snakes look like that because there head is theshape of the horse
