What is the difference between a mitchell ferret and a roan ferret?

A Roan ferret refers to pattern coloring - the concentration and distribution of color on the body, mask, and nose with 50% to 60% colored guard hairs (any color) and 40% to 50% white guard hairs, The different colorings are - Black Roan (Silver), Black Sable Roan, Champagne Roan, Chocolate Roan, Cinnamon Roan, and Sable Roan. I did't find any references to a mitchell ferret.


What does the color roan look like and what are the primary base colors that create the make-up of the color roan?

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.


When roan color in cattle is the result of incomplete dominance between red and white color genes how would one produce a herd of pure-breeding roan-colored cattle?

Genetics is a tricky thing and there are no 100% guarantees that you will get the color you want. That being said the best possible way that this might be achieved would to test the genetics of each breeding pair. And continue to breed a successful pair, but have a care not to over breed them. A roan will not necessarily produce another roan either. Any born not of the color you want test to make sure of the genetics and decide to keep and breed or sell. It would take years of careful screening, breeding, trials and errors and disappointments. But with patience and persistence I believe that it would be possible. :)


What colour is roan?

There can be a blue roan, a bay roan, and a red roan. A roan is a horse with a regular coat colour with white hairs sprinkled without it. Red roans and bay roans are very similar in colour, but they are still different. I love roans and they truly are beautiful horses.A red roan: http://www.barrelracer.com/Dusty%20Gildner/red%20roan%20filly.jpgA bay roan: http://www.holderquarterhorses.com/marthas-six-moon-colt-3.jpgA blue roan: http://www.horsemadness.com/poco3.jpg


When roan color in cattle is the result of incomplete dominance between red and white color genes how would one produce a herd of pure breeding roan colored cattle?

It's simply not possible. When you breed a roan cow to a roan bull you only have a 50% chance of producing roan offspring, a 25% chance of producing white offspring and a 25% chance of producing red offspring. You have a much higher chance of producing a pure breeding red or white herd than a roan-coloured herd.


What color is roan?

Roan is a coat color in horses that consists of a mix of white hairs intermingled with colored hairs. The colored hairs can be any base color, such as bay, chestnut, or black. The overall appearance of a roan horse is a blend of the base color and white hairs.


What horse color has a sprinkling or more of white hairs at birth and stays the same color as it ages?

A horse with a roan coat color has a mixture of white and colored hairs from birth that remain the same as it ages. Roan horses can have blue roan (dark coat with white hairs) or red roan (chestnut coat with white hairs) variations.


What color horse will you get if you breed a strawberry roan stallion with a blue roan mare?

If either horse is homozygous for roan the foal will be roan, if both are heterozygous there is a 75% chance that the foal will be roan. If by strawberry roan you mean the stallion is a bay roan as opposed to a chestnut roan, we can surmise that the stallion is Rn-A-E- The mare is Rn-aaE- The base color of the foal, without regard to whether it is roan is as follows If the stallion or mare is EE at the extension site they will produce either a bay or black foal...since the stallion is bay he could be AA (only bay foals) or Aa which will produce 50-50 bay or black with this mare. If both the mare and the stallion are Ee at the extension site there is a 25% chance of a chestnut foal.


What does roan mean?
