And the results are in.......


CHESTNUT! No gray. Here are the results:

Red-Factor Result:
e/e - Only the red factor detected. Basic color is sorrel or chestnut in the absence of other modifying genes.

Agouti Result:
a/a - Only recessive allele detected. Black pigment distributed uniformly. Basic color is black in the absence of other modifying genes.

Gray Result:
N/N - No copies of the gray gene. Horse will not turn gray.

So, no worries of being "genetically" chestnut but then graying. Yea!

Poor Tiki is looking like a patchwork quilt though. Now that she's shedding out her foal coat she's growing in some very strange stuff. Looks like some sort of ugly reddish liver chocolate color, Depending on the lighting, she either looks almost black, VERY dark red, or chocolate.
