    Wow thats a great outfit! Love the pictures. The farm dogs is a cutie!
    Shilo looks like a red roan in the picture. But if you say he has no white flecks in him he might be a sorrel. Here is a pic of a sorrel since nobody has posted one. *my horsey*

    Yeah, here's a closer photo of Shiloh. Definitely no white in her coat...I think she has some white socks...but, other than that...she's all the same color all over. She's not as bright as your horse, though. She's really dusty, must've been rollin' in the dirt!

    does look alot like a red roan...I am very educated in horses, even if it gives a slight sorrel color, it could still be red roan. If it is darker at it's head and rear and legs and lighter on it's back and stomach and fades into the legs and rear and head, so it looks like a roan, though it could be a strawberry roan...

    Blue Roan:


    Blue roan gies the impression that the color is Blue, but it is actually a light grey and dark grey, no more, no less...light greay in the middle and dark grey on the head and legs. Sometimes with red or strawberry roan it is simply a variety of colors, like the strawberry roan is only a dark and a light sorrel...and it makes it look like a strawberry red

    But, isn't there white in a roan? Geez, I'm only going by what y'all are showing me and what I saw...she looked nothing like that, her coat was the same color all over, just dusty. And, she had definite white socks, no fading at all. And, the other horse was dark, but, not grey anywhere...blech. I'm not trying to be a pain, but, I just don't see what y'all are seeing...unless what I read is not what roan is. But, every photo I've seen (the ones y'all have shown me and the ones I've found on my own) show roans as having white intermixed with the other color....

    In your first picture, the way the sun hits makes her look roan. Addie I think was just showing pictures, of what she likes.

    Yeah, I know the first picture was giving people that impression...but, even with the second close up...and, I was just going by Addie saying "does look a lot like a red roan"...
