At about 11:20 pm last night we had a little filly!!! Not appy like we thought,what is she considered?

Umm, adorable?!?!?? Congrats!

 

[HersheyMint]

Oh, congratulations!! How sweet, I'm glad everything went well with the birth.

 

[Taz]

Congratulations!! So happy everyone is doing well. She looks bay to me from those pictures. Can we have more pictures please when you get a chance? So cute!!

 

[elizabeth.conder]

Congratulations!

Definitely bay based! But I would bet money she carries the appy gene LP. See the white hooves? They will end up striped and she will likely varnish over time. So she is considered a bay varnish Appaloosa.

 

[Lifedaybyday]

So do you think she will ever get spots?

 

[Lifedaybyday]

This is her hooves.

 

[Capriole]

Congratulations!! I bet she will develop an Appaloosa pattern.
Many years ago I knew someone that was given a POA colt because he didn't color.....not too long after that he did start to develop spots...I don't know what pattern he finished as though.

 

[elizabeth.conder]

She may not get TRUE spots. Although stranger things have happened. With LP it’s always a guessing game. She could never grow a white hair or she could end up completely white.

 

[Lifedaybyday]

Fresh pictures from today! I just love her ❤
I'm really liking her color even though we didn't get a spotted one

 

[Lifedaybyday]

Idk why the pics multiplied lol

 

[Taz]

OMG that face, so adorable. How could you not love her?

 

[Lifedaybyday]

❤

Oh my goodness. Good job mama and congrats on the cutie! I would love to have a mini foal one day (though I'd be a nervous wreck).

 

[Kelly]

What a BEAUTIFUL baby! CONGRATS!

 

[HersheyMint]

She is sooo cute! That face I can't see enough pictures!

 

[Lifedaybyday]

She is a sweetheart and has bonded with my daughter.So sociable she is!

 

[HersheyMint]

She’s absolutely beautifulyou never know how they’ll change sometimes it’s shocking but she doesn’t need to she’s perfect
I’m not one to understand the genetics much I’d love to lol but this boy of mine came from a solid white sire and a solid chestnut dam. He was born completely grey NO spots what so ever, friends mistaked him for a mini donkey I’m not kidding!!! They magically started to appear as he grew it was crazy.

He's beautiful. His dad might have been an appy who greyed out, he didn't get the grey pasted on to him.

Sounds like his sire may have been a few spot appaloosa. Nice boy! If you get bored with him, feel free to send him my way!

P.S...I can't covet the filly, as your daughter is already bonded to her. My gut instinct is that she might develop some apps color too. I see tiny hints around her fetlocks, at the base of the hairs in her neck, and something about the coloring round her eyes reminds me of what's called "goggles"--that indicate a future color change.

At any rate, she's lovely.
