Is it possible that this filly is a yellow? >> Actually, Plain Dealings Linnea isn't a White (Red x Brown will never gives White, or Yellow for that matter). Based on the lineage she'd most likely be either be a Red or a Brown...though Red x Brown can also give Gray (as long as both parents carry Black...actually Red masks Black so it's possible for the Red to be homozygous for Black...that'd be quite a genotype!). The "new" White filly would, of course, be White because of the dam. No matter how nice a Red stallion is, he'll never be responsible for a White foal! LoL Anyway, if she truly has black in her tail then she's not a Yellow (didn't I read she had black in her tail...on the website maybe?).

That is so exciting! How many white Fjords are there at present, does anyone know offhand? (of course Mike would know, but maybe too many to count?) ... seems to me there are precious few.. a very rare occurence. There was a beautiful white colt at Libby last year and he sure took my eye. Interesting that you ordinarily have reds... Is OH Wynn a red dunn, or does he only sire red duns? I have never mastered the Fjord color theory and probably never will =)). We have a red stud also now (Magnus), a Hostar boy, and are anxious to see what his offspring shall be like.. never thought about white though! Ruthie, nw mt US
RE: Birth Announcement - White Dun Filly!
This message is from: "Richard, Julia CTR NAVAIR Bldg. 111, S1A, Rm 220" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Congratulations Margaret That is so exciting, to have a white filly! I wanted to buy the last white filly that Frank Baylis had but he wouldn't part with her at the time. Will this filly be for sale later? I don't know if Curt has ask you yet, but is it ok if he trailers my two Mares, Kinsey and Arora, to your farm on Sunday so I can pick them up to take them home after the Festival? I am so looking forward to seeing all the horses. Curt seems confident that my Mares breed successfully. We breed to both of his stallions. I am looking forward to having babies next spring. This will be my first time having babies. I can use all the advise I can get. I will see you Sunday!!

This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] I'm delighted to announce that FC Madellin had what appears to be a white dun filly this weekend. I say appears because this filly would break OH Wynn's streak of siring only red duns. Curt Pierce and I are about 95% sure she is a white dun at this point. This filly, along with 13 other Fjords of various ages from Virginia breeders will be featured at our Foal Festival and Open House on June 12th. A revised catalog is available on-line my farm website. Feel free to contact the owner directly if you are interested in a specific horse. The Foal Festival is a joint marketing effort among Virginia breeders to show off our sale horses and provide information on the breed to the public. We will be offering demos and have exhibits on the breed. I have no idea how many people to expect although the response has been positive. I'll post a report next week with my observations.
