Sire is Kobecks Chief O Hatchee - grey blanket appie

Dam is Western Original Star - black mare sired by appie stud and buckskin dam

This yearling filly has dapples and also there are tiny white spots throughout her body, mostly on her neck.

I'm not quite sure what you are asking. She is Silver Dapple. She MAY develop Appy coloring as she matures and may not. Hard to tell.

Thanks.

I guess I just wondered about the dappled rump with the front of her body being grey with tiny white spots and shades ranging from rey to white.

I appreciate your response.

Her Sire looks like a leopard appie now but was a grey banket as a yearling.

The colour of appie bred horses is quite interesting. You can not be sure what you'll end up with.

Most probably a combination of Silver Black and Appy. She is definitely Silver Black, and Appy roaning, or snowflaking can cause the "variations" on her front that you are seeing.

 

[Genie]

Thank you for that.

Snowflakes are a good description of the white spots that are all over.

Okay, I appreciate the information. She's a pretty little gal
