Best Answer

The roan color is created when a bay, chestnut, or black horse has the roan gene, which works white and gray hairs into the coat so that only the head, lower legs, and the mane and tail show characteristics of the original color.

A bay horse with the roan gene (called Bay Roan) will look a reddish-pink color except on his head and legs which will be brown and the mane and tail which will be black.

A chestnut horse with the roan gene (called Strawberry Roan/Red Roan) will have more of an orangey reddish colored head, lower legs, mane, and tail, and the body will appear pink or strawberry colored.

On a black horse with the roan gene (Blue Roan) the head, legs, mane, and tail will be black and the body will appear blue.
