Why wouldn't a horse breeder mate male and female palominos to get palomino colts?

Breeding two palominos together can result in foals that are buckskin, cremello, or perlino, rather than palomino. This is due to the genetics of the cream gene, which can produce different coat colors depending on how it is inherited. To consistently produce palominos, breeders often choose to mate a palomino with a horse carrying a different coat color to increase the likelihood of getting a palomino foal.

What is all the colors of a palomina horse?

There is a registery for Palominos that require the palomino's coat to be the color of a "Newly minted U.S. Gold Coin" and of course, the mane and tail have to be white. Excessive white is frowned on. White stocking at or below the knee/hock and a blaze is OK, but much more is not wanted. And Palominos have dark skin. Another color, Golden Champagne, is alot like palomino, but they have light, speckled skin, not dark skin like palominos. But horses that are not in the registery can still be called palominos as long as they follow the above rules except for the one about the golden coin. Palominos can be a very light golden color, to a deep, almost bronze color. Palomino horses usually have white manes and tails and are all tan on their bodies
