Pictures Grey transformations?!

[daisybobbie]

Hi all!

I've just purchased a yearling filly (she turned 1 on 27th April!). Her colouring is changing sooo quickly. Interested to see peoples grey transformations? She's standing at 13.1 at the moment and has pretty gangly baby legs at the minute!

A few people have said she looks blagdon? What do you think?

I've posted my girl before, so I've tried to choose pics that I've not used so often.

Chestnut to grey.

I have a massive soft spot for chestnuts... plus nobody likes cleaning a grey ??

As an 8yo in his last ever race - 30 seconds from a career ending and potentially life ending injury.

As a 10yo as a show horse



As a 16yo last year. He still has silver knees, hocks, a bit in his tail and his mane up by his ears.

Ah but when you get a grey properly clean it is a sight to behold! And well worth the effort!

Don't forget the gallons of Cowboy Magic green spot remover and purple shampoo.

Pft! I dont use stain removers! I leave them to be minging then bath them when I want them clean! It might take 2 goings over at the start of the year - 1 fairy liquid, one blue shampoo! Anything that is still coloured after that gets covered in sheep chalk!

The Beast on the day we got her, then this time last year. 2.5 years between the photos. Not got a one this year because she's gone fat and feral and is a disgrace at the moment.

Shes not grey. Shes black based with some sort of sabino eque gene, commonly known as Blagdon. Mines the same, looks black with some white flecking in winter, black with more white in summer and when clipped she looks steel grey. Same high white legs, white face and belly white.

I initially thought blagdon but she has greyed out so much already, I'm trying to post an updated picture of her but it wont work!

Finally managed to upload - this is her now at 1yr

They dont last long sadly! She's whiter again this year... a couple more years and they'll be no dapples at all! Different horse every year. ?

I stand corrected! Shes grey. Underneath the grey she would look like mine though! You don't see many grey cobs. She will be very pretty when shes at the dapple stage!

She has lightened up so quickly it's crazy! I cant wait to see how she matures. She should be a big girl too!

The day I bought him as a 5 year old in Ireland.

As a 7 year old

8 years:

And now at 9, it has been a very slow and gradual lighteningm he is def more grey/steal grey versus the bay/brown tones he had when I first got him and the mane is slowly starting to lighten. I'm hoping he stays dark for a good few more years yet as I love it.
