Mongolian wild horses are “dun” which is pretty much the same basic colour but a different gene. Buckskins don’t have a dorsal stripe down the back usually (if they do it’s lighter) and they have stripes on their legs, and have white in their hair. Buckskin and palomino are “creme” genes… so a chestnut horse with creme is a palomino, and a bay horse with creme is buckskin. Actually I think the dun gene is similar… dun+ chestnut is red dun (like “Caper” that fairyhearted was selling), dun+ bay is the typical buckskin looking dun (like the mongolian wild horses) and dun+black is the silver grulla colour, like the production ones or like grayling.
I don’t know much about the colour genetics though… like how you would get a tobiano pintaloosa silver grulla… suffice to say that the colours on these grab bag unicorns are quite rare in real horses!
May 3, 2011 at 2:13 am #844272I too love seeing everyone’s pictures! Duneflower is soo pretty too-those navy blue jewels are very striking against his orangey coat. My grab bag young uni won’t match my baby-but that’s okay. They’re both black and white, so maybe the baby had a different daddy *looks around innocently*

May 3, 2011 at 5:46 am #844281Heehee, I just bought Caper 😀
May 3, 2011 at 11:19 am #844290Here are some pictures of Rosedust, who I received in the mail yesterday afternoon! Pictures don’t do her justice – she’s got a really beautiful color scheme that’s very hard to photograph well. I love her! Her gems are a very fitting dusty pink 🙂
I think no matter what I get for a uni in the mail next week, I’ll be happy because I got this one!

Or maybe it’s just the same colour as the coat. And pink jewels too! I just love this thread. So much cute in one place.
I got my first guy in the mail today from skeeterdeee, it’s the bay pinto “cyprus” from a few pages back. I’m going to wait until my surprise ones get here and take pictures of the 3 together though. I’m hoping they arrive by friday. The one I got is so much prettier in person, the painting on these guys is just so detailed! I’m going to have to unplug my internet when the new batch goes into the store. Hehe

She thinks Caper is an “Amber Champagne”- how elegant sounding! I mean it sort of looks right:
I came across this website which was kind of interesting. http://www.whitehorseproductions.com/ecg_basics2.html
I hope more people get theirs soon, I can’t wait! 😀
May 3, 2011 at 7:43 pm #842348Here are my Grab-Bag Unis. I think I like the medium blue eyes better than the light blue, but I love them all. The first two don’t photograph very well, but they are really pretty in person; the second set is just as pretty as their picture. Long shot I know, but if anyone wants to sell their Appaloosa, I would be happy to buy it.
May 3, 2011 at 11:40 pm #844359It looks like there are more Young Unicorns in the store tonight (May 3, 7:37 EDT). Have fun!
May 3, 2011 at 11:57 pm #844365OMG, I got a grab bag young unicorn. On a whim I happened to check on the store and was shocked to see them in stock, yaye!
May 4, 2011 at 12:03 am #844366*sigh* Man, I wish I wasn’t flat broke! There they are and i can’t buy any! x.x
