Yes, she is a Fjord. I referred to her as grey because, currently, the grey dun fjords are not referred to as grey dun, but as grey (as in the NFHR documents about color.) I missed the part of Karen Keith's e-mail where she was talking about a breed other than a fjord, so my apologies for the misunderstanding. As far as I understand with other breeds, one would need one grey parent to produce a grey. Beth -- Beth Beymer & Sandy North Starfire Farm, Berthoud CO http://www.starfirefarm.com
Re: It's a Boy
This message is from: "Karen Keith" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Yes, I was talking about true grey horses, such as in Lipizzaners. In this case we were talking about a warmblood foal rather than a Fjord. The grey gene is a dominant and, if present, will express itself. So if you have a non-grey baby out of one or two grey parents, that baby is not carrying the grey gene and has no grey gene to pass on to its progeny. As far as grey Fjords, they are a black base coat with the dun dilution, no "grey" gene involved. What in Fjords is called a grey dun would be called any number of names in the non-Fjord world: grullo, silver grullo, blue dun, black dun, lobo dun. Way more than anyone wanted to know. :^) Cheers!

I believe you're talking about two completely different things here Karen was not talking about Fjords. She was talking about true Grey horses - as in mixtures of black & white hairs - and yes, I believe she's right, one parent has to have been a grey to produce a grey. (unless both parents have a recessive, possibly, I'm not totally sure.) Amy
Re: It's a Boy
This message is from: Jean Ernest <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Beth..Are you talking about Fjords here? The grey Fjords are really not "Grey" in the sense of other breeds, but are grey DUN or grullo it would be called in quarterhorses...I think she is talking about a Hannoverian or warmblood, where the Grey wold be different and I think might require one parent to be grey.

This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Linda: I will be showing Prins at a local show that I am a co-chairperson of, the Oregon Gold Horse Show. It is an open show, but has showcase classes for Fjords and Haflinger horses. We (us central OR Fjords & Haflinger owners) started this show just because there are so few shows where anyone even knows what these horses are, as well as because driving classes are so scarce in our part of the country. This year is our second (hopefully annual) show. We are hoping that this show will continue to grow to eventually be an all Fjord & Haflinger show. Amy
Re: it's a BOY!!
This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Amy - where and what type of show will you show your foal? We hope to show ours a little - mom, too. We will show on the "open show" circut in our area - not sure there has ever been a fjord shown at halter:) One judge is very familiar with fjords - we will try to go where he is - and he will smile when he sees us:) Linda in MN
