Record 2 2005-12-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Horse Husbandry
  • Horse Racing and Equestrian Sports
CONT

It is quite likely that the singular Chestnut Roan offspring from this actual sample may be just as likely to pass on its genes in groups like above... but because it is chestnut... you won't be able to see this particular linkage in the offspring, and charts of its own offspring are more likely to be closer to representing the "expected" probable results.

OBS

Chestnut or sorrel, and white hairs; mane, tail and limbs are mainly of the dark colour.

PHR

Flea-bitten chestnut/strawberry roan.
