Black
Chestnut
|
Black is one of the two foundation colors, the other being chestnut. Ponies are either black or chestnut with other genes modifying them. Black is dominant to chestnut. A black and a chestnut can produce a bay. Many blacks do not look true black due to sunbleaching, which are known as fading black. Some blacks hardly ever fade no matter the elements, and are known as non fading blacks. A homozygous black has two copies of the black gene and will only produce black and bay based ponies.
