Isleros is a bay tobiano. Because both of her parents are bay it’s possible she has two copies of black and two copies of the bay causing agouti. Her dam Danny’s Girl Splash appears to be this way based on her foals. However, her sire Effie’s Papa Bear carries recessive chestnut so it’s also possible he passed that along to Isleros. Since only her dam is a tobiano pinto she only carries one copy of tobiano. 50% of her foals will be tobiano.
Probable genetic makeup: possible A/A, possible E/E, TO/n
Picture
The flashy Roberta Raye’s Seaside Dream is an interesting mix. She’s obviously a buckskin so she has one copy of the cream dilution inherited from her sire CLG Tomorrow’s Tidewater Twist. 50% of her foals will be cream dilutes. Since both of her parents are bay based she might have two copies of agouti and black. But her sire has been proven to carry recessive chestnut so he might have passed it on to her.  Both of her parents are tobiano pinto and she is too, she might have inherited a copy from both or maybe only one. Her foals will eventually answer that question.  She has a blue eye and her dam Sky Dancer has two blue eyes. It appears this is from splashed white, however other white patterns have been tested to be in a relative so it’s possible it’s from something else. But splashed white 1 is the most likely.
Probable genetic makeup: possible A/A, possible E/E, possible TO/TO, likely SW1/n, CR/n

Marnie is a bay tobiano with a lot of possibilities that we’ll have to wait to figure out. Both of her parents are bay tobianos. Her sire Henry’s Hidalgo carries recessive chestnut and may or may not have passed it on to her. Her dam Marguerite of Chincoteague has only produced bays so it appears she has two copies of agouti. She might have two copies of tobiano since both of her parents are tobiano. Cat tracks are more common on homozygous tobianos and she has some. Her sire appears to have splashed white 1, it runs in his family, and with her big blaze she might have it too.
Probable genetic makeup: possible A/A, possible E/E, possible TO/TO, maybe SW1/n
Picture
Penny Lane is a black tobiano like her sire WH Windy’s Beach Boy. She might have two copies of black since her dam also has black. But both of her parents carry recessive chestnut so one of them could have passed it on to her. Because her dam Anne Bonny’s Little Flower is buckskin it’s possible she inherited a copy of cream and could be a smoky black. Time will tell. Only her sire is tobiano pinto so 50% of her foals will be tobiano since she has one copy. Splashed white is in her sire’s family but visually it doesn’t appear she has it, but splash can be sneaky sometimes.
Probable genetic makeup: a/a, possible E/E, TO/n, possible CR/n
Picture
Rylee’s Way is the third of three full sisters to be kept for the herd, all bay tobianos. Her sire Don Leonard Stud II is chestnut so she has to carry recessive chestnut and she can produce chestnut foals. She may have two copies of agouti as her sire carries it unseen and her dam Winter Moon is a bay. Both of her parents are tobiano so she either inherited two copies or only one. She might have splashed white 1 because her dam has a blue eye, but looking at her I’m not convinced.
Probable genetic makeup: possible A/A, E/e, possible TO/TO, maybe SW1/n
Picture
Billie Jean's Britches is a buckskin tobiano like her dam. She inherited one copy of the cream dilution from her dam. 50% of her foals will be cream dilutes. She might have inherited two copies of agouti or black or tobiano from both of her parents, or maybe not. Since her grandsires are chestnut and palomino it’s possible she carries recessive chestnut. I don’t think she has splashed white, she might have inherited another white pattern as a half sibling by her sire Ajax was test to have others. No way to tell without more data.
Probable genetic makeup: possible A/A, possible E/E, possible TO/TO, CR/n
