Question

What color was george washingtons white horse ?

Answer 1

This joke is dumb.

The color of his white horse was white. Even though it is actually grey but for the uneducated horse people then it is white.

Answer 2

This question is asked on this category about once every two months.  Horseinky is right... it's getting stupid.

The answer to the stupid joke is white.

However, the true answer to what color the horse was, is grey.  Paintings of the horse show a horse with white hair, but black around his muzzle and eyes.  To be a white horse, the horse must have no black, not even under his hairs on his skin.  A true white horse has pink skin all over its body and white hairs.  A grey horse is born a dark color (chestnut, bay, brown, black) and turns lighter overtime until adulthood when you have a horse with white hairs.  A white horse is born white and never changes.

Answer 3

Gray.

Answer 4

George Washington had many horses. Nelson was a sorrel color, and Blueskin was a blueish gray. He also had some Arabians, one of which was named Magnolia, who was a Chestnut color. When he died, he had 21 horses in his barn at Mt. Vernon. It is said that he probably had two white horses.
