I have a 5y/o palomino Miniature Horse named Daisy, who was bred to a true black pinto stud. There first foal (who sadly died from complications of being born premature) was a chestnut or palomino pinto filly (couldn't tell with her so young).
So, what color might this foal be? If the father is solid black and the mom palomino? I have only seen chestnut pintos and black pintos come out of him, but is there a chance for another color? I am confused as to which is dominant...palomino (isn't that a "red" gene?) or black? Can a black horse carry a "red" gene? i am just sooo confused lol I tried looking stuff up, but I just got more confused lol.
I know one of his fillies (who we just bought) is a solid black pinot just like him, and her mother is grey. If that helps you narrow something down. xD
Here are some pictures if they help any...
