Hey everyone I get very bored very quick so I decided to do somthing that could help the source. I've noticed in a lot of characters the colors seem unnatural, well this topic will fix that. alright so here we go

Up first are the most common AKA the basic coat colors for horses.

Color name:Bay
Other names of bay:Cherry bay, Dark bay, Blood bay, and brown
Discription:Redish brown body color with black mane,tail,legs and ear edges. the muzzle is black too. Bay is one of the most common coat colors in many breeds.

Color name:Chestnut
Other names for chestnut:Liver chestnut, Sorrel, blonde or light chestnut
Discription:Red brown coat, with mane and tail lighter or the same color as the body.


Color name:Grey
Other names for Grey:salt and pepper or steele gray, dapple grey,fleabitten gray, and rose gray
Discription:This coat color is characterized by the progressive silvering of colored coat hairs, example as humans get older our hair turns grey or white. most gray horses have black skin and dark eyes.


Ok now that that's done I want to get a very important poitnt accross

Name: LWS
Other names: white, LWS,LWO

Quick note the reason im putting this here is cus I'm tired of argueing with people over it and of the not doing reaserch.

Discription: A true white horse has pink skin, blue or brown eyes and is completely white. This is also known as LWS or Leathal white syndrome. LWS is caused by two dominante genes that carry the white factor, this causes LWS. Its extreemaly rare for a foal with LWS to live at all, the reason being that LWS causes weaked digestive and immune systems. LWS foals are almost always humanly eythinized or die on their own.
