Are horses the color roan?

"A roan is a color of horse, so some horses are roan, but the color of a horse depends highly upon the breed of horse. It is possible to determine the color of a foal before he/she is born by comparing the coats of the dam (mother) and the sire (father), also by looking at the previous foals of each." Roan is NOT a color. The color of horses does not depend on their breed. Many breeds can have any color at all. Roan is a scattering of white hairs though the body of a horse giving it a "salt and pepper" look. It can happen on any color horse, although it's not going to be as visible on lighter colors like grays or paler palominos.

Is a black horse just a dark chestnut?

No... It is a completely different equine identifying color. A chestnut horse is a horse whose coat is basically red. Varies from a pale golden color to a rich, red gold. The mane and tail are normally the same color as the body, but may be lighter or darker than the body. If the mane and tail are lighter in color than the body, the horse is referred to as having a flaxen mane and tail. Sorrel is the what a "chestnut" quarter horse is referred to as. On a black horse, all hairs are black, although white markings may be found on the face and lower legs. A black horse has black eyes, hooves, and skin. If there are tan or brown hairs on the muzzle or flank, the horse would be referred to as a seal brown.
