How many people on here own Duns?

I do! My yearling pictured here. His dapples were stronger than this in the summer.

Yes I have one I think one of my favourite childhood ponies being the same colour made me buy him, he is a higly strung fart but really loving even though he is a bit of an old codger now.
 
My boy looks quite a lot like yours. From forum lurking you are from Cambridge? Do you go to local shows like rampton etc? There is one that looks a lot like Bailey that is always at shows round here that I have walked towards a few times and only when I've got closer thought ahhh that is not my horse!

Yeah that will be us :D come say hi next time you see us.
 
I do :D 16hh buckskin gelding Spanish x TB (bred in Spain). Champagne coloured (so quite pale) with a star and snip and frosting in the mane and tail.

We have a total five dun/buckskins on our yard, so can take a lorry load out competing - now that gets some attention :D

They sounds stunning any chance of some piccies :D

I learned to ride on a new forest pony who was supposed to be silver dun I'm not quite convinced though I posted a picture before somewhere *toddles off to find it *
 
Daughters 1st pony was an 11.2hh sec A x chocolate dun called Frizbee

She was fab! Lost her eye due to a tumour but still jumped & did pc!! miss her like mad xx
 
Hi Cloball, Yes they are all rather good looking (mine especially :D) would love to post some piccies and actually did try to of my boy but failed miserably :( As you can see, I am fairly new to this so still need to learn the skill of posting photos
 
Meee! Some pics of summer coat and winter wool - including funny dark patches on his neck that show up more when clipped out. Seems to get a bit blotchier every year actually! Love my dun!

another dun owner here with a horse with a temperament to die for. So, why do so many duns seem to have such nice natures?

Dun-no! Sorry, that was terrible but couldn't resist! My trainer swears he's 'never met a bad dun', says it almost every lesson!

Love mine to bits and he has an awesome temperament - I can razz him up and play silly, or sit on him half asleep, do anything with him. Generally do agree with the generalisation they are all lovely, except one when I was quite small that pulled the rope out my hands, galloped off and double barelled me as it went.. think she was hormonal though!
 
My best friend owns my girlie's 1/2 sister, in fact she bred them both :)
She's a buckskin QH:

hope this works, i've been told my pony is a chocolate dun, he's got the dorsal stripe, zebra stripes on his legs and 2 stripes either side of his shoulder (like donkeys have!). he goes alot darker in the winter and very fluffy! :D

i always thought i had a dun... but have since learned that she is in fact buckskin, as she has no dorsal stripe or barring.

whisper: arab x conn x welsh (in foal in this pic!)

i love buckskins...
 
I have a buckskin Trakhaner x Arab I would post a piccie if I had a clue.

I am by no means an expert on colour genetics, but I understood buckskins/duns had black points, but somebody posted a pic of white legs???:confused:

we always refferred to palamino/whites as lemon and whites years ago
