Misty III is the current heir to the name of Misty. She's a granddaughter of Misty II and a great great granddaughter of Misty. Her sire is the most recent featured tested pony, the chestnut tobiano Misty II's Henry. Misty's dam was the buckskin Little Beebe, born in 1991. She lives at Kerkaken Acres with her sire and many cousins. My pony Misty's Hurricane Izzy is her older half sister.
Palominos like Misty III are chestnuts with one copy of the cream dilution. She tested as e/e for chestnut and CR/n for one copy of cream. Her copy of cream came from her buckskin dam. Chestnut had to have come from both parents. Her sire is chestnut and her dam carried chestnut recessively. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/chestnut.html https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/palomino.html Misty tested as having two copies of agouti, which creates bays. Since she doesn't have any black we can't see the presence of agouti without testing. Her sire is also homozygous for agouti so she received a copy from him. Her dam is a buckskin (bay with cream) so she got the second copy from her. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/bay.html Her sire Henry has two copies of their pinto pattern tobiano and her dam was a solid buckskin. Misty had no choice but to inherit one copy of tobiano. Which her test also showed as TO/n. https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/tobiano.html Misty tested for primitive markings as nd1/nd2. Ponies that test like this might or might not have primitive markings. It appears that she doesn't, but she also has so much white it's hard to tell! https://www.thecolorfulchincoteague.com/primitivemarkings.html
