Black mare aaE-
Piebald stallion aaE-To- (we assume here that the spotting pattern is Tobiano, but he could be Overo, Sabino...and as long as the stallion has only a single spotting allele the spotting pattern can be arbitrarily assigned.) Piebald, by definition is
a black horse with a spotting pattern.
It is not known if either the stallion or the mare carries e at the extension site so there is a possibility that the foal could be chestnut if both parents are Ee.
If either parent is EE all foals produced will be black.
50% chance of a white spotting pattern unless the stallion is homozygous for his spotting pattern (if he is overo he can only be heterozygous) which would make the chance increase to 100%. If the stallion carries multiple different spotting alleles...like Tovero (tobiano and overo), Sabero (Sabino and overo), etc. there is a 75% chance of the foal having a spotting pattern.

Can a chestnut Arabian mare bred to a black Arabian stallion produce a grey foal?
it is not possible to have a grey horse unless one of the parents is grey. they must have it to thow it.
Bred a sorrel and white mare to a black and white stud?
The type of white pattern is not mentioned here...for the sake of simplicity I will assume that the stallion and mare are Tobiano for the first example. Stallion aaE-Toto or aaE-ToTo Mare --eeToto or --eeToTo (genetics of mare at agouti site is unknown and may be determined to some degree by looking at the colors of the parents and grand parents. If either the stallion or the mare is ToTo (homozygous for tobiano) 100% of the foals will be Tobiano and 50% of the foals from this mating will be homozygous for Tobiano. If the Stallion is Ee at the extension site 50% of the foals will be chestnut. If the Stallion is EE at the extension site there will be no chestnut foals. The genetics of the mare at the agouti site will determine the color of any foals that are Ee or EE at the extension site. Since the stallion is black: aa he can only pass the a allele to his offspring. If the mare carries the a allele, 50% of the foals will be black.
If you bred a palomino mare to a chestnut stallion what color foal would you get?
Usually the darker color will dominate. But sometimes the genes of the parents can overpower the darker color. You really can not be sure. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It really depends on whether the black horse is homozygous (EE) or heterozygous (Ee). Horses are born with a base color from each parent. E represents black and e represents red. Black is dominate over red. If you get two red genes (ee) you always end up with a chestnut. If you get one or two black genes (Ee/EE) you end up with a black horse as long as you don't have agouti (A-Bay). So if you have a black horse with Ee bred to a chestnut horse ee, you have a 50/50 chance of getting a chestnut. If you breed a black horse with EE to a chestnut horse ee, you have a 100% chance of a black horse because they black (E) gene is dominate. Hope that clarifies it :) Fuangel29
Can a buckskin mare and a chestnut stallion produce a buckskin foal?
Usually the darker color will be dominant in horses. BUT... sometimes the horses genes will override this color dominance. It is a sort of wait and see with horses. It all depends on the genes that the parents carry. If there is a bay (brown with black mane/tail/legs) in either the mother or the father's genes, it is possible to produce a buckskin. The special thing about palominos is that the cream gene (that makes them that gorgeous gold colour) is a dominant gene. That means you only need one copy of that gene for it to influence the outcome of the offspring. Think of it like a dilution. A chestnut horse bred to a cream/cremello or (anything carrying the cream gene) will most likely produce a palomino foal. A bay bred to cream gene carrier will most likely produce a buckskin. A black bred to a cream gene carrier will most likely produce a smoky black. However, with all these cases, there are exceptions. If the mother or the father has a bay parent or grandparent, or the father has a buckskin parent or grandparent (because, remember, the cream gene is dominant, so if the mother isn't palomino/buckskin/smoky black, she won't have the crema gene in her lineage), and remnants of those genes have been carried forward into the mare or stallion, there is a chance you'll have a buckskin foal. Yes, it is very confusing ^^ This is a really good site to check out what colour foal you'll get from what colour parents: http://www.animalgenetics.us/CCalculator1.asp
What 2 breeds make up a piebald dachshund?
Piebald is not a cross breed. Two dachshunds bred together need to have the piebald gene in their background. Piebald is recessive and will not show up but you could see a relative that was a piebald in the pedigree. Two piebalds bred together will produce all piebald puppies.
Which is stronger a clydsdale or a black stallion?
Nine times out of ten, it would be a Clydesdale, because they are bred for pulling carts. Just because a horse is a stallion and it happens to be black, does not make it super strong!
What would happen if you bred a light bay mare with a grey stallion?
If you're talking about what color the foal would be when it was born, then there's really no way to tell. It all depends on the dam's and sire's genetics. The foal could come out light bay. It also could come out grey. But it could also come out a number of other colors such as black, palomino, buckskin, piebald, etc. depending on the breed of its parents and its DNA.

What is a piebald borebole?
A Piebald Boerboel is also known as the South African Boerboel or South African Mastiff. This is a large dog breed from South Africa, bred for guarding the homestead.
Black mare really black her only foal you know of was a brown She is bred to a strawberry roan for this spring any chance of getting a blue roan?
If the stallion carries the a gene and is heterozygous for roan your chances of a true blue roan are 50% if your mare is Ee. If she is EE there is no chance of a chestnut coated foal so the color of the foal will be controlled by the genetics of the stallion at the agouti site...either brown, bay or black.
Is a clydsdale stronger than a black stallion?
That depends on what breed of horse the black stallion is. If you're talking about the black stallion typically featured in most novels and movies, then yes. Because unless it has feathers, that one is most likely an Arabian. If it has feathers and more of a draft build, then it's most likely a Friesian. Though Clydesdales are still bred to be stronger than most Friesians.
What colour foal will you get out of a solid black mare and a chestnut and white overo paint stallion who apparently throws back to dams colour?
So an Overo stallion can only pass his spotting pattern 50% of the time which gives the breeder a 50% chance of an Overo foal in this breeding scenario. The mare is either aaEe or aaEE If she is aaEE she cannot produce a chestnut. If she is aaEe bred to a chestnut stallion there is a 50% probability of a chestnut foal. The stallion's genetic makeup at the agouti site will determine what the color of the foal if the foal inherits E from the dam (since the mare is recessive at the agouti site).. The statement that the stallion throws back to the dam's color may be an indicator that he is recessive at the agouti site (making him aaee) If this is the case this particular breeding would produce a black foal (which would make the throws back to the dam's color "true"). Bred to bay, brown mares the foals would also "tend" to produce foals colored like the dams especially if they don't carry e at the extension site.
What would be the colour of a foal bred by a paint mare and brumby stallion?
Color in horses can be very complicated. I'll try to make it brief. It would depend on what type of paint horse. In the tobiano color pattern you can have a horse that has two tobiano genes called a homozygous. This horse when bred with any other horse, reguardless of breed or color will produce a tobiano color pattern. The color could be decided by either parent. (bay, chestnut, black, ect.) If the brumby is bred to the other color pattern, overo, you could get several different patterns or a solid color. I hope that gives you an idea. Even in this day of advanced science, genetics can still be just a 'roll of the dice'.
Can a chestnut Arabian mare bred to a black Arabian stallion produce a grey foal?
it is not possible to have a grey horse unless one of the parents is grey. they must have it to thow it.
Can a stud breed a bred mare?
No. Bred mares are not receptive to the stallion because they are bred, not in heat.
