Wanted to share a photo of our new TWH Stallion who is standing at stud at Running Arrow Farm. We've also collected semen on him and frozen straws. His collection was 85% motility, so we were very pleased.
Even though he is TWHBEA registered as a "Palomino", his DNA color testing at University of Kentucky Lab are telling us something different. At this point in time, he is testing positive for the silver, agouti, and red/black genes. He also has a dorsal "Dun" stripe down his back as well as some "stripped" markings on his legs. Pending final official testing, and our extensive research on his offspring, we are tentatively classifying him as a "Silver Dapple Buckskin with Dun Markings". It's been very frustrating to get his TRUE official color nailed down!
Any ideas from y'all?? [/img]
