Hey,
Just a helpful bit of information…
The cream gene does effect black horses even in a single dose.
creme on black creates a smoky black

a double dose of the cream gene on black is a smoky cream

Both are very different from greys.

Hey,

creme on black creates a smoky black like the black horse pictured.
A double dose of the cream gene on black is a smoky cream which looks like a slightly darker cremello
Both are very different from greys.

so this might be a silly question but i was wondering what causes a horse to be a “sooty” palomino and not just a regular palomino with darker points. i just bought a mare that has genetically tested to be a “sooty” palomino and as i plan to breed her eventually i would like to understand. any help is appreciated.
THANKS!
Hi luvsMyGirls,
A sooty palomino is affected by the sooty modification gene, you can find some basic information about it on the sooty/smutty modifier page.
what is everybody talking about?
what would you get breeding palomino to palomino
There is also a color called a black palomino.
Hi
Can anyone tell me if I can breed my dark bay stallion with any colour mare and not get a cremello or perlino foal or do I have to have him gene tested
The pony under palomino that you claim is a “dark palomino” most certainly is not. There is NO cream gene there — that’s clearly a silver dapple, which is a totally different gene. That pony is not a genetic chestnut at all, it’s genetically black. Silver dilutes black. At best, the pony has Agouti as well and is a bay silver, but I doubt it.
I have a golden palomino stallion that I would like to breed from. I do not know his parents. How do I go about finding out whether he has the cream gene and what would be the best colour mare to breed him with to try and get the golden palomino colour.
Hi,
I was just wondering if I bred a Non-Fading Black Stallion with a Smoky Cream would I get anything other than a Smoky Black? And if I bred a pale chestnut with the same stallion what would I get?
