The term 'color breed' is really a misnomer. 'Color breeds' include Pinto, Palomino, and Buckskin among others. All of the horses that are registered with the color registries are typically purebreds from other breeds that have a specific color and qualify to be registered with a color registry so that they can compete against horses of the same color. They are not true breeds as they are (Typically) not required to prove parentage or have purebred status, they just need to have a specific color, and possibly a specific build to be registered. There are two exceptions to this though, the American Paint and the American Appaloosa, both of these registries require all foals be DNA typed and have approved / registered parents. They will not penalize a foal or adult horse for being a solid color instead of 'colored'.

What breed is a buckskin?
Buckskin is not a breed of horse but a color. There is a buckskin registry but it has nothing to do with the breed of the horse but his coat color. The Pinto registry is the same thing. The Buckskin registry will take any breed of horse as long as it has the buckskin color.
Is palomino a breed or color of horse?
The Palomino registry is a color registry. The horse must be the correct color to be registered with the breed.

Palomino is a breed and a color although it is most often used as the color for example i have a Palomino Dun Appaloosa

Because Buckskin is a color of horse and not an actually breed, it has nothing to do with how big the horse will get.

What are pintos horses?
Pinto is a color not a breed of horses. There is a Pinto Horse Association which can include any breed. The American Paint Horse Association includes only horses with Quarter Horse, Paint Horse, or Thoroughbred bloodlines. So a 'Pinto' is a white and any other color in 'patches' of any breed, while a 'Paint' is white and any other color in 'patches' of the Quarter Horse, Paint or Thoroughbred breeds.
