Misty's Summer Rainstorm is a flashy Misty descendant stallion that lives at 4S Chincoteague Ponies. See more of him and his foals here: Chincoteague Ponies for SALE. One of Shiloh's foals is accomplished dressage pony Chip - Legacy's Island Renegade. His first daughter Navaeh got some attention last year when she adopted the filly born on Assateague missing a hoof. Shiloh's sire is the chestnut tobiano Misty's Rainstorm and his dam is the bay tobiano Island Jazz. We're happy to have his genetics in Etalon's database in case some of his foals need identification in the future and if the foals of one of his half brothers who was also a stallion do too. Thanks to his owner Deanna for letting us test him! Misty's Summer Rainstorm's test results: A/a, E/e, nd1/nd2, TO/TO, EDXW2/n Shiloh is a bay with one copy of agouti, A/a. He carries chestnut recessively from his chestnut sire, E/e. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/bay.html His primitive markings test shows as nd1/nd2. This means he and some of his foals might have primitive markings like a dorsal stripe. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/primitivemarkings... Both of Shiloh's parents are tobiano and he inherited it from both of them, it shows as TO/TO. That's also called homozygous for tobiano. Because of that all of his foals are tobiano. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/tobiano.html He has cat tracks and tobiano roaning. These are not exclusive to homozygous tobianos but are more common on them. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/cattracks.html https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/roaning.html Due to the flashy look of his tobiano pattern and that big blaze I always figured he had something other than just tobiano. My guess was splashed white but nope. He has one copy of Eden White 2! EDXW2 is also likely why a couple of his foals have had a blue eye as it's been found to cause those. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/eden-white.html

Molly's Rosebud is a 2010 mare who is sired by the Maryland born chestnut tobiano Spirit of Assateague. Her dam was the buckskin tobiano Merry Teapot's High Bid. Molly is the spitting image of her dam, down to the Arabian characteristics inherited from her damsire Gunner's Moon. Everyone noticed her resemblance to her dam when she was born! Three of Molly's foals have been kept for the herd, all by different sires: her first foal in 2013 Rosie's Teapot, 2021 mare Ms Shampine, and 2022 mare Miss Holy Smokes. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/assateague-horses... https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/arabian.html Molly is a buckskin so she's a bay with one copy of the cream dilution. She has black and one copy of agouti which restricts her black to her legs and mane/tail. She's had 3 black foals so that's why we know she has one copy of agouti. Because her sire is chestnut she carries chestnut recessively. Her one chestnut foal also tells us this. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/bay.html The cream dilution lightens her body color to it's golden color. She inherited cream from her buckskin dam who inherited it from her sire. Roughly 50% of her foals will also be cream dilutes. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/buckskin.html Molly is a tobiano pinto like both of her parents. She inherited one copy and we know this because she's had a solid foal. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/tobiano.html She's a pretty minimal tobiano. Almost a cryptic tobiano like her dam was. Molly's only white is on her legs, a star, snip, a large spot on her rump, and stripe across both sides of her neck. Several of her foals have also been minimal. Something is suppressing their white to make her and the ponies in her family minimal, but research hasn't found it yet. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/minimaltobiano.html   Nosey, also known as Nag Me Not or Spots was born in 1984 or 1985. Her old ID number was 78 which was branded on her left shoulder. I have a feeling that she was nosey to the folks that were naming the ponies back in the mid 90's! Her parents are unknown at this time. Her only known offspring kept for the herd was the buckskin tobiano Honeybee who was the most recently featured historical pony. Nosey is one we have to use her foals to figure out things about her genetics since we don’t know what her parents colors were. She was a chestnut so she passed chestnut on to all her foals. Nosey was recorded as having one chestnut foal and two palominos. May have had more but records get thinner as time goes back. Since she was chestnut that means both of her parents either were chestnut or carried it recessively. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/chestnut.html Nosey had a black in 2000 so that means she didn’t have the bay causing agouti or she only had one copy. She had 3 buckskin foals and one bay, all by buckskin stallions. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/bay.html One of Nosey’s nicknames was Spots, and you can see why by her extensive cat tracks. That’s the main thing I remember about her before I knew anything else about her. That many cat tracks is often an indication that a pony has two copies of tobiano. It appears to be the case with her as all of Nosey's foals that we know of were tobiano. If she did have two copies of tobiano that means both of her parents were tobiano. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/tobiano.html https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/cattracks.html   |
