I like grey Arabs well enough, especially when they are young and still steel grey in color. But you can't get too fond of it, they'll get lighter every year.
You're right the color should be secondary, that's why with that Tovero, we bred for conformation, not guaranteed color. Taffy, the mare, was built like a Mack truck in the body, but with the little tiny feet and stubby legs common to AQHA types lately. They bred to a very thoroughbredy Paint with long legs. They didn't get color, but they did get legs. And legs are important.

She grew up to be a fine looking horse.

"And legs are important."
Ask any man if that's true or not.
Do ya'll see why that horse is a tovero? A true tobiano has a solid face, except for maybe a blaze or a snip or something, not a bald face like that horse. An overo has a bald face, but no white color crossing over his back. Hence, she's a cross between an overo and a tobiano.
(I'm sure you know this, Hair. I'm explaining to Keith.)

Hey everyone! Last night when we were talking and we suddenly wanted to see a picture of Cindy's horse, I asked ecurbh if he would to a "who's who page" for us, with pictures. He's got it started, with our pictures, names of horses, and location. If everyone would choose pictures to post to him of yourselves and your horses, he'll add y'all to the page as we go. Most of the regulars, we've already got a spot waiting for, in alphabetic order. If you aren't on the list and want to be, let us know!
Take a look! and ping ecurbh with your pictures you'd like to post! When this is done, I'll post it at the start of the thread so we can always find it.
