Typically Quarter Horses and some pony breeds are found with paint colouring.

What is the difference between a Quarter Horse and a Paint horse?
Very little. The Paint horse began as Quarter Horses that had excessive white markings, in Paint talk these are called 'cropouts'. Two solid colored QHs can and do quite ofter produce a foal that is very colorful. The AQHA has color restrictions, so many of these very nice 'cropouts' were not accepted for registration, making their value much less. So the American Paint Horse Association was born. Since 1965 these wonderful, colorful horses have grown in popularity for their kindness, versatility and beautiful coats.
How does a wild paint horse eat?
paints are the sames as all horses. The question does not make sense. Wild horses eat just like other wild herbavores. They graze on grass and plants. As far as I know there are no "wild" paints. The paint horse is actually a specific breed. Derived from the American Quarter Horse and selected Thourobred. They had too much white on their coats so could not be registered as Quarter Horses. The American Paint Registry began around 1965 to provide a registry for these "too white" Quarter Horses. Wild horse herds have "pintos" which are horses that have the same patterns as the Paint horse breed but they can be any other breed or combinations of breeds. I believe American Mustang is now considered a breed but these horses can't be registered Paints because they did not come from Quarter Horses or Thoughobreds. Simply put, Paints are a breed, pinto is a color or color pattern.
Is paint a coat color?
No. Paint is not a color it is a breed. Pinto is a coat color that looks like a paint, yet can be on any other breed that alows it, but paint is it's own breed.
