Lets see some spots!

[TuscanBunnyGirl]

Post pics of your spotties please, love seeing the different types and colour patterns

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I know this doesn't really count but hey ho... here's how spotty my grey has become. She grows in more fleabites with each coat change.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I thought that I should probably add some real spotties.

Love the 'halo' spots on this one.

 

[Auslander]

I have a spotty livery! His spots are mostly black, but he also has some brown ones, just to be different!

 

[Cortez]

I am, just possibly, in the process of - maybe - buying this one:

 

[YorksG]

This is one of mine, the other tends to look as if she is a chesnut roan, but gets paler every year

 

[Beausmate]

Black base, with that weird appy colour shift thing going on. She's got yellow feet too.

First one is AMAZING. What on earth is the breeding? I would be tempted to say either a giraffe cross or a test-bed for someone learning paint effects

 

[Paint Me Proud]

Does varnish roan count?
He does have a sprinkle of oatmeal spots on the top of his bum and also white spotting all over but they're against such a pale background anyway you can't tell.

 

[Slightlyconfused]

My spotty 😊

 

[Cortez]

Lovely, even without the spots! How tall is he?

 

[AppyLover]

I apologise for the picture overload as I do love my spotty baby Theodore 'Ted" Orion

His spots change on a seasonal basis

 

[Paint Me Proud]

Lol, he does have spots I swear

I'm in denial about how tall he is, I like to pretend he's 16.1 but I think in reality he's about 16.3

My beautiful baby -

Because I love his spotty bum

I don't know... but your guess is as good as any!

 

[FfionWinnie]

Please can I have a giant jumping spotty??

`He's gorgeous. Have promised myself one day I will have a spotty bum horse

 

[Mrs B]

Lovely! That halo-spot is amazing ... (And I do hope you're going to actually buy that one, Cortez ...)

I am rather biased towards spotties. This is me in about 1974 on Inky, the riding school pony I looked after for a good few years ... I did adore him.
It always makes me smile to see that school cardigan, the purple nylon and foam numnah and the plastic yellow and blue browband ... Such class!

My first thought was it must be caused by a fungal infection but then I have little knowledge of horse colour genetics.

These are all stunning.

 

[Meowy Catkin]

Hang on Mrs B... that looks like my car (Yukon grey Moggy Traveller) in the background!

Another horse with the same thing.

They call them 'ink' or 'peacock' spots in this ad.

*laughs* It was actually our one ... (my Mum's the one in the headscarf next to it). Great little cars! I do remember in hot weather that the red leather seats used to be very hot on small, bare legs ... That was the only car my parents ever bought new in 1967. I think she cost £380 ...

They're amazing whatever they are. Always intrigues me how these unusual markings show up from time to time, really unique.

Yes, red seats! Mine is '63 and cost me £500 about 7 or 8 years ago. I drive lots of different cars of different ages and the Moggy has the nicest steering of them all.

Agreed. Absolutely fascinating to look at.

I know they're really striking but I'm not very good with mould and suchlike and that's all I can see when I look at them!

He's blending in rather too well with the forum background on my screen!
