Just a bit of fun...

Sorry can only put up to ten options so have had to omit some of the rarer ones.

Black with fur white socks and a star.

However I seem to only breed chestnuts ....

Lol. My least favourite colour is bright bay but I have owned three of them and my favourite horse ever was bright bay. I love my current filly's colour. She's a very dark buckskin.

Having had three seal browns, there's obviously something drawing me to them! I love my little grey Welsh, and I loved my black loan mare, but I can't seem to stay away from a nice, shiny seal brown - especially the ones with very orange muzzles and face markings and a nice, almost black coat. Yes, they're absolutely scrumptious!
 
I'm a strange one! I love buckskins but they have to have as little white as possible in their solid form (I prefer a solid face with no white or a star at most). I am also a sucker for a nice, equally marked buckskin tobiano- but in this form, I prefer them to have a blaze or white face and a pink nose. See, told you I was weird. ;)
 
Bright bay and yet In 36 years I've never yet owned one! Love anything other than grey as very hard work keeping them clean but my mare is coloured and predominately grey! Fortunately she's a very clean monkey most of the time. Absolutely adore leopard spots/knabstruppers too. x
 
I'm surprised that so far grey seems to be the most popular as most comment I hear is that people avoid greys due to the difficulty in keeping them clean.
 
Couldn't vote as no option for "anything that doesn't show the dirt." I've had enough of dealing with this (sorry I know I've posted it before!)

I agree they look lovely when they look like that ^^ PS - mine never does for long though :(

Hahahahahahahaha . . . Pops does his fair share of that, to be fair . . . little toe rag!

Grey dun. Which doesn't look anything like buckskin so I'm not ticking that.

Most beautiful animal in the world <3

I am a sucker for a grey but won't own another since losing an 11yo grey to melanoma.Keeping him clean was never a big deal tbh.
I have two Exmoors who are Exmoor coloured and a lovely bright bay with a big white star. Bays are hard to beat IMO but pretty much like every colour-not big on coloureds or spotties but there are some lovely ones about.

Three out of 4 of mine have been grey. Two weren't too bad (hence keeping going) but after the third, (see above) never again! I have a friend who loves having greys just (well not just, but mostly) so she can clean them. Unfortunately she spends so long on her own two, she's never got time to help me with mine.
 
I love greys, I had 6 at one time, but I like my dilutes even better :D
I have one (sometimes) sparkly white mare at the moment.

I complain at least once a day about the fact that the grey boy is never really grey, and at least once a week that he doesn't shine like our gingers... But if I could pick again I would always have a grey, I just wish they wouldn't grey out!

I'd like to think I would never discount a horse on it's colour, however I am very picky with coloureds (I like mostly dark) and I avoid things with too much pink skin.
