1 Strawberry Roan - dad has now decided they aren't pretty enough
1 Coloured (on loan) now banned from anything which has white as it's predominant colour or grey tail
1 Liver Chestnut - no longer allowed as it has the word chestnut in the colour!

sounds like my OH, he liked chestnuts until an 'episode' with one, now likes very dark bay/black.
i would like a coloured but he detests them! and coloured cobs! no way...theres a youngster up the road id quite like to buy, he could turn out magnificent imo but oh'd hit the roof!
My goodness, this made me think.
Over the years my son and I have had:
6 bays
2 chestnut mares
2 chestnut geldings
1 black
2 strawberry roans
2 chocolate roans
1 palomino.
1 fleabitten grey.
Of all these it would be really difficult to pick a favourite as they all were special.
1 brown
1 odd coloured, almost piebald
1 chestnut
1 dun with list and zebra marks which turned dapple grey all the way to white
1 fleabitten grey
1 light grey born strawberry roan
1 iron grey now fleabitten grey
2 bays
1 palomino gelding
1 black gelding
1 chestnut with roan flecking on flank gelding

3 black mares
4 bay mares
