pics of your roans

[MindyLee]

Just an FYI to all of you who are curious about whether your horse carries the roan gene. I got a confirmation from UC Davis that they CAN do a DNA test for roan

So I guess I will be sending in some hair samples on my stallion to see if he carries roan or if he is just silver bay! Good info to know -- thank you to Lucky C Acres for mentioning this to me!

Hi Stacy, how much dose it cost per test? I would like to maybe concider testing a few of mine if its not to bad of a price tag

THANKS!

No problem Stacy! I knew I had seen a test for it! Let us know how your boy tests!

My son's Silver Bay Roan B sized Shetland mare, keep kicking myself in the backside for selling her. Was almost 12 years ago now.

This horse is a sabino roan, vs. a true roan. One of our geldings, WFM's Skippin Miracle

I love Jamie and Blessings, gorgeous girls! If either of you ever get tired of looking at them, send them my way

Here is our roan mare, Bdazzled BB Kings Tequila Sunrise. She is sired by Bar B King Buckeroo

And this was my special girl, Peach Valley Copenhagen Angel, a silver bay roan...Sadly, we lost her, and her filly, in a foaling dystocia last winter

Yay, another photo thread I can participate in

Here is my red roan filly, Little Kings Bonniebelle Buckeroo. Belle is a 3 year old Buckeroo daughter and was to be shown this year and last but our goats ate her tail

... which is growing back VERY slowly.... So she'll hopefully be shown next year after her 2012 foal sired by Sparrow is weaned. I am hoping she will add some nice blue roans to our program over the years

She has gotten very "roany" since these pics were taken, you can't tell in the pics but she also has two unconnected strips on her face. I always thought roans didn't have white on the face but I guess they do

They can have normal face marking (star, strip, blaze, etc), but the "ticking" white (intermixed white hairs that make roan) shouldn't be on the face in a true roan (but they likely will be with sabino roaning).

This is our 19yr old stallion NFCs Candy Dandy. He's a bay roan pinto with a silver gene. His pinto markings are under his tail and mane. The mane and tail are silver in color.

We had 15 foals by Dandy and the colors were:

4 bay pintos

3 bay roans

3 bay roans w/silver gene

2 silver bay pintos

2 black w/socks

1 silver dapple pinto (mare was silver dapple)

Total of 10 fillies and 5 colts

In winter he's red

In March he sheds out his red winter coat...down to a silver spring layer.

I'd clipped his head/neck couple weeks before this pic...he likes to watch me in the arena.

Love all the roans...!!!
