Here are just a few examples of horses I own or have owned who carry the Frame Overo gene: McSperitts Rowdy Night Image Songcatchers Walking After Midnight: Songcatchers Can You Imagine: McSperitts Masterpiece Tori: White Diamonds Love Me Tender, and her foal who has not yet been...

Tobiano is noted for smooth lines between the colored area and the white area. Sabino has rough, jagged lines and sharp points. Sabino USUALLY puts some white on the face also, but not always. I have a couple that clearly carry Sabino who do not have face white. There are many different...

I can't help you with the cause of the unusual markings, but PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE be sure you test this mare for LWO if you are going to breed her to a stallion who is LWO positive or not tested. I have a daughter of this mare who is LWO + and I suspect she got it from Little Spots. It sure...

I do own a daughter of hers, although I have received a deposit on her and sale is pending. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE be sure you test this mare for LWO if you are going to breed her to a stallion who is LWO positive or not tested. The daughter I have is LWO + and I suspect she got it from Little...

Hi, I'm here. My contact information is in my signature below. Feel free to email me.

Sabino! The white often expands beyond its original markings. Take a look at this filly's lovely spot on her withers: As a yearling, it's nearly gone: In my opinion, Splash is responsible for the off-centered placement, and Sabino is responsible for the growing size and changing shape.

Beautiful foal, and I love those off center face markings. He reminds me a lot of this little Black mare of mine.

Very pretty filly. Congratulations Nancy.

Welcome from Oklahoma, and congratulations on your new Mini. Have fun shopping.

Good reminder. I'm bumping this up so others can see.

You know she is Black based and know she carries Red, so no need to test for Black/Red. It is obvious she carries Agouti (at least the mane and tail appear Black), but don't know if she is homozygous or heterozygous. The only thing left to test for is Cream. She doesn't really look Buckskin...

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure you will learn a lot here. However, one IMPORTANT rule is that you may NOT post pictures of horses you do not own and ask for opinions of them. It COULD lead to someone posting negative comments about the horse and causing hard feelings. Maybe not in most...

I would like to say also, thanks for posting this as it serves as a reminder and MAY prevent someone else from being hurt.

Very good advise given already. I hope your boy will be fine. It is our tendency to treat our animals as the sweet, gentle toys they appear to be. A variety of factors can contribute to unexpected behavior. The new stallion MAY be a factor, and removing him MIGHT ease the problem, but after...

Diane answered this very well, but let me give you a visual. It is possible to have two full siblings with one being Black Tobiano, homozygous for Black and homozygous for Tobiano, and the other being Solid Red. They are full siblings, but got very different genes from the parents. Similarly...

She is a beauty! Congratulations Mary. I know you're glad to have her home.

We have had one of the driest summers already here in southeast Oklahoma that I can remember, and we have a long way to go until fall. My pasture is burnt up. The only thing that is green is where I have been running a sprinkler, and that is not nearly enough to keep the horses going. I have...

Welcome from Oklahoma. I'm a bit late getting around to welcome new members.

Welcome to the Forum from Oklahoma. It was 107 degrees here today when I looked. Hope it's cooler where you are.

I think extreme heat can bring on a variety of illnesses. That said, I don't think animals are as affected by temperatures (either hot or cold) as humans are. I have no doubt I would be dead if I had to be out in this heat 24/7. I did spend 3 days in the hospital several years ago, due to the...
