To Fellow HI2 players doing Mr.SteadyOn's Horse Color Quiz, the answer is Primitive- LittleRedRider!!Dun can be red dun, blue dun or dun. If we assume that the dun is A-Dndn or A-DnDn We know the palomino is --eeCrcr 50% of the foals have the Crème allele and therefore be dilute. 50% of the foals (if the Dun parent is heterozygous Dndn) will have the Dun allele. If the dun parent is homozygous dun DnDn all foals produced will be dun. If the Dun horse is A-Dndn and Ee at the extension site. 50% of the foals will be red based. This could be chestnut, red dun, dunalino (palomino and dun), 50% will be non-red. This could be bay, dun, dunskin (dun and buckskin) If the Dun horse is A-DnDn and Ee at the extension site. 50% of the foals will be red dun or dunalino 50% of the foals will be dun or dunskin. If both the stallion and the mare carry the true black allele a there is the possibility that a resulting foal could be a grulla or a crème dilute grulla. If either or both of the parents are color tested, the percentages would be simple to calculate. Examination of the parents, grandparents and any offspring produced would shed light on what the true possibilities are for this mating.
A dark brown or navy headcollar would complement the dun coat of a 15hh mare nicely. These colors typically look elegant on horses with dun coloring.
The name Dunn in relation to horse coloration comes from the word "dundin" which means a dull or dingy brown color. Horses with a dun coat typically have a body color of yellowish or tan with primitive markings such as dorsal stripes and leg barring. The term has been used for centuries to describe this specific coat color in horses.
Because a horse's skin is either black, grey o r chestnut, that depends on the horse colour, so the horse colour is going to be a mix between them or one of them.
A dun dilute is a horse color that results from the combination of both the dun gene and a dilution gene, such as cream or pearl. This combination creates a lighter version of the dun color, with a diluted overall appearance and often a lighter mane and tail. Dunnish colors can range from cream to tan to brown with primitive markings like dorsal stripes or leg barring.
Its kinda like ya know la. like sorta a like sinnging note thing. you know how people go la la la la la la la? well some people go dun dun dun dun dun dun. that's da only definition i know, but go on dictionary.com and type in dun
The color of the first wild horses is thought to have been dun.
Yes, quarter horses come in any solid colour.
icelandic horses are commonly chestnut, dun, bay, black, gray, palomino, pinto and roan
You breed a dun horse the same way you would breed all others - a horses color does not change the way they need to be bred, the only thing you would need done specially is if your horse has problems - previous breeding complications, tissue scarring, infections - but you would need to see your vet about those implications.

Sounds like this may be a description of a red dun horse (a chestnut horse with the dun gene). Many breeds have the dun gene, mustangs and quarter horses are examples.
There are MANY many colours that horses come in: black, white, brown, chestnut, dun, buckskin, roan, spotted, etc.
Colour varies wildly in wild horses, from black to red to dun to palomino to piebald to pinto and everything in between.
OK, well old indicates that he is about 20 or more. Quarter horse is a breed that is used for mostly western events, because that is what he was bred for- roping cattle and other things the cowboys did. They have powerful hindquarters that allow them to jump into a run from a standstill, they are the fastest horses in the world (over a short distance), and they can stop and spin on a dime. Dun is an intense color with a hide that has an abundance of pigment in the hairs. The dun color is a duller shade than buckskin and may have a smutty appearance. Most dun horses have dark points of brown or black. Dun horses sport the "dun factor" points which include dorsal and shoulder stripes, leg barring, etc.
They can, but typically dorsal stripes are found in true dun colored horses.
