| Just a note about Whisper, Windy's dam....... |
Whisper is a gorgeous horse of a different color! Tested by UCDavis, she is classified as a Palomino, but we feel she also carries the dun factor. She has NO silver dapple gene. Her mane and tail are tri-colored and she demonstrates all dun points. She surely looks like her sire, Doc Holiday!!!
Whisper throws amazing foals and is a wonderful mother! Although Windy was premature, Whisper has taken her under her wing, as a mother should, feeding her but yet teaching her "herd manners" as well. Whisper keeps a watchful eye on Windy, allowing her to explore but not letting her get too far away or out of her sight!!
We have pulled tail hairs from Windy, and sent them to U.C. Davis, because we believe that she too is a horse of a different color. At this time, we know she has the agouti gene because of her black points. We are testing for the Cream Gene and are also having the Dun Zygosity test done. If she tests positive for the Cream Gene, she is a buckskin. If she has the Dun Gene, she is a bay dun. We cannot WAIT for the results!! Stay tuned!!
