I checked now and it seems like it, searching for silver perlino and silver smokey creme horses in game yields no results

Dulcie, I do believe silver only affects the color for black based coats, but I could be wrong.

Dulcie, yes you are right chestnut bases hide silver. I think I recall something about double creme hiding it as well, but I'm very unsure if that's right or not

Capital letters mean the gene is present
There are 2 colors that need an absence of the gene
Red (ee) means no black is present
Pearl (pp) think of pearl as toner

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure ZZ is no silver and zz is homo silver.
My memory is iffy though so don't quote me haha

Silver (Zz/ZZ) only shows on black base coats (Ee/EE) correct?

Zz or ZZ means the horse has silver. zz means the horse doesn't have silver. Hope that makes a little more sense.

Zz means the horse is carrying one copy of silver. One copy means the horse has a chance of passing silver onto their offspring. If the horse is ZZ, then it carries two copies and every foal they throw is guaranteed to be silver

Fanta, it means that the horse is silver or if it isn't showing, its hiding silver.

In a genetic test, what does Zz for silver mean?

So, I've been reading up on horse genetics for RL. And came across something that's interesting. We all know that having homozygous WW results in Lethal white. But in RL, homo Rn results in a foal dying in the womb. Is this an oversight in the genetics?

I had a look and it seems that although that used to be thought to be true, it's not actually true.

"Although it has been suggested that Roan is a homozygous lethal, evidence from the Quarter Horse breed indicates otherwise. Production records have documented the existence of Roan Quarter Horses that produce 100% Roan foals. DNA tests have confirmed homozygosity in the genomic region that contains the Roan gene."

EDIT: I'm happy to be proven wrong because all i did was google search :P

Gemini is correct. It stems from the fact that a heterozygous roan and a homozygous roan both look very similar. So, people kinda thought that since there wasn't any noticeable difference, that homozygous roans didn't exist.
