<snip> I never did figure out what
happens if you breed the Homozygous grey to the Homozygous Black. I take it, it
would be black? Battle of the titan genes? Toss of the dice? See I've never got
a really straight answer to that one. <snip>
Bottom line – you would get a grey,100% of the time.As for the base color of the foal, it would depend on the base color of
the grey:
Chestnut w/o the agouti (bay) allele:black turn grey foal
Chestnut w/ the agouti (bay) allele: either a black turn grey or a
chestnut turn grey foal
Bay, heterozygous: either a black turn grey or a bay turn grey
foal
Bay, homozygous: bay turn grey
Black: black turn grey foal
