My horse is in his teens..possibly early twenties.
He is a grey...white hairs/black skin. No pink bits. Black muzzle/around eyes and black bum-hole (possibly too much info there
).
When I first got him about 6 years ago he had a few chestnut 'fleabites' on his neck and shoulders only.
Now he's covered in them...they are over his back/belly/legs. Not so obvious in winter when he's fluffy.
If he has a cut/graze ( which used to be quite often when we were on livery yards) sometime the hairs grow back white, sometimes chestnut.
So....is it likely that he was chestnut as a foal?
And....if he lives into his thirties.....will he be chestnut again?
