Fronbach Hello Charlie

 

April 2007

In April 2007 The Brand Farm of Innisfail, Alberta, Canada had their 2005 Welsh stallion, 
Shell Crest Dusty Gold
tested for the silver gene by Animal Genetics Inc., he was found to be carrying a copy of the silver "Z" gene.  

 

 

He is the first purebred Welsh to be confirmed silver by testing!  He was also tested in March of 2006 by U.C. Davis to be black.  

His color markers are Ee aa nZ

 

 

Talia Chiodo announced that her new APHA mare Stars Angel Too, dam of Bella below, was confirmed a silver carrier as well as a cream carrier by UC Davis!  Her test results are 
Ee Aa nCr NZ - Silver Buckskin!

 

 

 

We believe Stars Angel Too is the second confirmed silver by testing of an American Paint Horse.

Congratulations Talia!
