This table will tell you what possible foal colors your mare could produce, when bred to Smoke
Smoke's genotype is EE aa (DD or Dd) ToTo We will assume Smoke is Dd (heterozygous for dun) for these calculations. If he's actually DD (homozygous for dun) then all non-dun colors listed would drop off the list, and the equivalent dun-gened colors' percentages would double!! If you don't know your mare's genotype, you can test for many of the genes to determine it. Otherwise, referring to the first line listed for that particular phenotype (visual color) will give you all possibilities. |

| Mare carries 1 grey gene (Gg) | |||||
| Refer to first chart (for mares with no color modifiers), based on mare's base coat color (genotype, and color at birth, before she greyed) then divide all numbers in half. The other half of the foals would be expected to inherit the mare's grey gene (on whatever particular base coat color) and eventually turn grey as well. | |||||
