Coloured stallions!

Hi, I know Utah, and Copabella Visage, which is best to produce quality coloured foals for show jumping, is there any others that are better? is so what are they and can you provide their contacts?

That isn't how it works. Tobiano is dominant so a heterozygous stallion gives 50: 50 coloured to solid foals statistically. OK sometime the odds work towards the coloured foals but each foal gets a 1 in 2 chance of inheriting the tobiano gene.
 
haven't read all your replies, so likely duplicating!

Utah van erpekom, (seen 2 of his offspring and really impressed with them, one was coloured, one was bay) the owner is very nice and also has frozen semen from a pinto warmblood stallion called Commander (for sale hence frozen only) http://www.horseandcountry.tv/episode/uk-stallion-expo-2010-commander if utah's stud fee is on the high side Commanders is lower!

If you want a jumper I'd also look at Rubicolour, currently competing BSJA, graded chaps and jumping 1.40m at home with ease, of 3 foals born this year 2 were coloured, all from solid mares.

Zospecial I like the look and stamp of but not sure where he is currently, fab dressage bloodlines, but haven't heard anything about him recently.

Co-pilot at freckleton stud looks a promising boy too, homozygous black, he's by K3/K2.

look at airborn at shovern stud for homozygous coloured.

and another coloured that really took my fancy if you want to go abroad is swiss made at gestut sprehe.

you beat me to it! :D unless the stallion/mare is homozygous then you have a 50/50 chance... a coloured stallion may throw coloured foals consistantly for five years.... then the next five only solid coloured foals... ;)

good luck in your search. x
 
The Stallion Airborn has BSJA winnings I have used him this year and I really like him and his pedigree I purchased a few Homozygous Tobiano stallion results from the BSJA and I was suprised to find a few registered with 0 winnings this did influence my decision as I have a homozygous Tobiano mare with a rare and outstanding pedigree! and I wanted a suitable husband with an equal out standin pedigree.
Co insidentally we have sold our Homozygous Tobiano colt 2 year old a full brother to the mare above he will be going to France next year to start his SJ career with the same people who own Visage he was purchased by the person who owns I was Framed who is also over in France.
Nest year we will be standing the elder of the three siblings that are all Homozygous Tobiano he will be five next year he is now in Show jumping training, but we will be offering AI next year please pm me for more info.
 
This thread is from 2009 :eek:

As for coloured stallions, don't forget Glenhill Gold, a coloured ISH (IDxTB) advanced eventer! :)
 
I also would like to find a compitition coloured stallion, the best two that I have found so far are Visage and Utah, they are both jumping 1.4m and 1.5m 4m tracks, but I think there must be another one just as good or even better, can anyone help?
