Description *EDIT* I changed the names...I didn't realize they were so similar to the books...

Yay! Two uploads relatively close to each other!

Anyway, this is my entry for club's 'Design Rain's Parents' contest.

Sire: Thunderstruck
Color: heterozygous Black Frame Overo

Dam: Zephyr
Color: Flaxen Chestnut Tobiano

Explanation behind colors: Since Rain is a Chestnut Tovero, her parents must carry one Tobiano gene and one Overo gene. I decided on the Frame Overo gene because of her large white face and blue eyes. Blue eyes are much more common in Frames than Sabinos. As for the Chestnut part, Thunderstruck is heterozygous for Black, meaning he carries one Black gene and one Chestnut gene.

RooCat In reply to WSTopDeck [2007-02-17 15:48:11 +0000 UTC]

I so totally agree. I have a black Arabian stallion and we've been looking for a part Arab black and white pinto, or even a good Paint mare, don't care which type as long as the markings are cool, to breed to him.

Lol, well good luck on your search! If you find one you'll have to post pictures!

RooCat In reply to WSTopDeck [2007-02-19 08:09:31 +0000 UTC]

Of course, I will! Found a nice bay overo 15/16th Arabian but still too far from Pintabian to pay the price they wanted. And so the search continues...
