Okay, I am a complete numpty when it comes to breeding! I was thinking about my dream horse, and considering my favourite colour is buckskin and I love tb's I figured this would be it!! From what I can gather they do exist, I'v just never seen one!! Does anyone know of any or any breeders? Just curious really, as would like to "gen up" in this area!

Also in NL
 
There are buckskin TBs. We do have two buckskin TB colts and one buckskin TB mare, a two year old colt and a one year old colt. Shannonleighstables in UK has Buckskin TB foals this year too.
 
I don't knkow of any Buckskin stallions in UK but there is a cremello TB stallion called Electrum and so put to the right mare you will get your buckskin.

Thanks everyone for your replies! Will look into further, love to get a colt for next year. Anyone know how much roughly they go for? They're so gorgeous!

Thanks for the links! When I get back on facebook (came off for a while for a break and to spend more time on here :) ) I will join, although I don't know if I qualify as my tb's a ginger!!
 
I've never seen one before though I do know they exist. I'm a bit of a traditionalist and like to stick to my normal coloured TB's but I would be interested to see them. I'm guessing they decend from American Quarter Horse stock diluted down until they are calssified as TB's.

No they are not decended from Quater Horse stock, The Thorougbred in England carries the splash white gene, in the states the genes where there all along but some genes are Mutations like Dominant White this is proven through research with universities and studies by breeders who have helped the researchers and supplied there horse dna


bumblelion yes of course you qualify its for everyone to enjoy the magic of the colour mutations that keep happening there was a white foal born from two bay link below

This mare is owned by a member of this board and she is so rare the only Brindle to have been discovered in Europe and she has passed this on to one of her offspring shes as pure as pure TB as you can get
we dont have to delve to deep to find more

She looks like she's melting! Lovely colour
 
There was a Irish TB stallion named Marlon, who was very influential in Holsteiner breeding years ago. He threw some buckskins that were quickly culled. There was also a pure French TB stallion named Sylfou who was palomino back in the 1950's or so. He (I think) ended up in Hungary doing color breeding for them. He's got descendants, but not pure TB.

It happens. I think the crop outs probably came from lines that hid cream under smoky black.
 
@ bumblelion
We do have a 2009 buckskin TB colt for sale at a very decent price.

@ vineyridge
Marlon produced Palomino offspring with a Chestnut mare so he must have had the cream gene. Other than that none are known but some older Holsteiner pictures show Bays that really look light to dark buckskin where you only see the gold around the muzzle. Since Holstein does not like Chestnut, most mares bred were black bay or dark bay and it is difficult to see the cream under a dark bay or black bay horse.
 
Hi, my two foals Auriane and Xenaura are the first Buckskin Thoroughbreds born in the UK and in the General Stud Book at Weatherby's and they are first Buckskin fillies born outside of the US and Canada.

They are officially the first registered as their correct colour of Buckskin in the World :)

Weatherbys took their case to the International Stud Book Committee in September and they agreed the colour Buckskin could be included in the list of official colours.

They are not for sale..sorry

I got something right!!! I predicted Coolmore stock would produce belly splashes a few years ago. Yes white will outcrop in this way. It either builds like this as more white appears in each generation or in the dominant whites like The White Admiral suddenly crops out from two conservative parents, once the mutation happens that individual goes on to produce 50% white in it's offspring.

A strange mutation in TB stallion Catch a Bird who was a white brindle, he never reproduced his own colour but produced true roan offspring.

The one I am not convinced of is cream, I do think that gene was intoduced more recently probably in the 50's from a non TB source though they are now ratified and pedigrees accepted. MT or Y str DNA tests would be the only way to tell for sure.

BTW in the USA unlike the GSB no non TB can ever qualify as a pure TB, though in the UK they can providing the cross is 8 generations back and that they have proven performance on a racetrack.
