And then I remembered that the agouti black is has the extension genotype of E+ which they share with Bay, but the rare dominate black gene extension ED. Those horses can be jet black to a brown black or dark brown, and often are more brown because the gene is sort of leaky. Since Dominant black is dominant they very rarely produce bay foals, but it’s a different gene, then Agouti black, and it’s not faded black. I’m pretty sure faded black is only a form of agouti black.
