@cadiness

Sure. I think I know which colors did which but not 100% sure. We’d have to ask someone else.

Thanks Confluence!

Thanks HUSG!

I first pulled up the sire's page and wrote down all the genes he would have passed to the foal (one from each pair). If he was heterozygous for any gene, I put a question mark with the gene in question in parentheses. So I got this:

E A ?(CCr) d g F Sty ?(Pp) ?(Zz) ?(KitmKit) ?(SpsSp) ?(lpLp) ?(OlwO)

Then I opened up the dam's page and filled in what she would have passed on. So now we have this:

Ee Aa ?(CCr)?(CCprl) d?(Dd) gg F?(Ff) StySty ?(Pp)p ?(Zz)z ?(KitmKit)?(KitmKit) ?(SpsSp)Sp ?(lpLp)lp ?(OlwO)O.

The rest is the guesswork. The foal didn't look buckskin to me compared to horses I brought up in search, which narrows our choices down to CC (no genes at the cream locus) or CCprl (which wouldn't show). I guessed C from dad and Cprl from mama. The dorsal stripe and dark nose indicate dun (so D from mama). Flaxen was anyone's guess because the foal was black-based. Pangere might be a little easier to guess if you have a really good eye for it, but I don't, so another blind guess. The foal is black-based but the mane and tail are pale, indicating silver (so Z from dad). Using a punnet square, the chances of the foal being het Kitm were higher than the chances of being hom, so I guessed het. The lack of face white and the typical bottom-heavy blaze or bald face rules out splash (in most cases), the lack of mottling on the nose and flank rules out appaloosa, and I guessed again on the frame because there is only one Kitm Olw horse that matched my specs in search to compare. I guessed extensive WF because both parents had extensive WF (WF tends to go up each generation)

So my final guess was:

Good game guys!

Yep!
