I know bulk supplements gets a bad rep, but I try to limit all the extra stuff. As much as reasonably possible. Yep my mares get 10grams too. The dry stuff is so much easier than the liquid.

Next laser pointer I get for Sketti will not be rechargeable, nor will it be any of the "cat toy" brands. This one legit exploded and I now have chemical burns all across my hand.

All three horses are on it. Oklahoma and Rocky get either 10 or 15 grams, I forgot. Denali is on 20?

Anyway, mom has one adult bush that provides the bulk of everything and several younger ones growing. Still had to buy some over the winter 'cause she ran out

That'll blow any other product out of the water right there. How many plants do you guys need to feed Oklahoma?

Got herself a grinder and she'll grind up the leaves/seeds once she's dried them.

Which brand are you using? I have all of my 20+ mares on it and like the results. Was previously using Su-per Chasteberry, but switched to Bulk Supplements since I purchase other products through them.

Oklahoma is on chaste berry to regulate her hormones. Without them, she basically goes into perma heat due to having her ovaries out

Love smart ponies. I have a bred mare this year. Lord willing she carries to term. Started her on progesterone and trying to decide if we should move to the injectable or not. I know she does best with 20mls but she has to eat it, can't do oral with her and she's a finicky earter. So I'm struggling atm. Kinda wish she was smarter, but chances are she's outsmarting me...

Hi all. InkSpren here. I've noticed that some grey foals actually have grey on their foal images, while others don't. So I got curious. Is there a correlation between the amount of grey on the foal image and the type of grey the horse has as an adult? I used the lense of time on a large number of grey foals, and the answer is yes. Here are the results, with images for illustration. I tried to make the examples uniform (same breed and base color) to keep things simple. All images are cropped from HEE and not altered in any other way. If you have anything to add, let me know!

Edit: I somehow completely forgot about bloody shoulder. I will update this in a few days once I have some more data points.

Lets start at the beginning. A grey foal's foal image can come with four different levels of grey. All of the following foals were listed as grey, and they all have black bases without dun or roan. I gene tested the last foal to be sure.

1. No Grey

2. Moderate Grey #1 (Smooth)

3. Moderate Grey #2 (Chunky)

4. Heavy Grey

No grey on foal

When I used the lense on grey foals whose foal images did not show any grey, the adult images came out as either dark dapple, fleabitten, or what I call roany-grey with lots of base showing through (and no, these horses did not actually have roan.) There are two versions of dark dapple and two versions of roany-grey. Here are some foals and their adult images; foals on top and adult underneath.

Moderate Grey #1 (Smooth)

All foals with smooth moderate grey grew up to be fleabitten.

Moderate Grey #2 (Chunky)

All foals with chunky moderate grey grew up to be very lightly dappled with some of the base color showing through on the legs.

Heavy Grey

All foals with heavy grey completely greyed out. In other words, they turned "white."

Now, you might have noticed that both "no grey" and "moderate grey smooth" foals can become fleabitten. But do they become the same fleabitten? No. Here they are side by side for comparison. Both foals had the same base color. You can go back and review the foal images in their respective categories in previous posts.
