I captured a horse that pretty obviously seems to be a brindle https://horseeden.com/horse.php?id=18493252 but it doesn't say so in her color profile. Does a horse need to be gene tested in order for the brindle to be acknowledged?

Chimera, not brindle. Brindle is stripes, not splotches |

Oh, I thought they were the same for some reason. Thanks for clearing that up. Chimera is when embryos merge, right? How is brindle caused? And is chimerism ever counted when it comes to colour rarity? |

Thank you. yes, I can see the difference. Is brindle passed on to offspring? |

There is a very minuscule chance that brindle can be passed on. But its like .07%
