| Color Patterns of Horses |
|
If you have
ever seen horses before, you probably noticed that all of the
horses were colored differently. Well, believe it or not, these
colors have specific names. From the descriptions below, try
to match the right color pattern for each horse.
Black
colored horses have black all over, including the mane, the long
hair on the neck, and black hair on the tail.
Bay
horses are red with a black mane and tail.
Chestnut
horses are golden to red in color all over, including the mane
and tail.
Ysabella
horses are golden to red in color, but their mane and tails are
gray.
Dun
horses are a little lighter than the Chestnut and Bay horses,
but they have a golden mane and tail, with a dark stripe down
the back.
Gray
horses are equally black and white, making them look gray.
Roan
horses have white hairs with some other color. This other color
can be any of the ones we already talked about.
Pinto,
also called paint, has white hair with big spots of the other
colors all over their bodies. |
