Gosh Barb she sounds very pretty! I LOVE roans. Her foal had better than 50/50 to get a bit of those spots :) , as roaning is a dominate gene.

I have a Bay roan Welsh pony mare. She looks like a blue roan, but has the black points, and in her shaggy winter coat you can see that her hair is actually brown.  

I'd love to see pictures of your mare and her foal, if you have any of them....and if you have figured out how to set up your scanner yet ;) VBG!

I too find this an extremely interesting thread. Thanks for the info Sariena. I was, in the past, an avid horsewoman who co-owned an Appaloosa mare with roan patches. Not a lot of color on her at all, but bred to a black/brown, she produced a very pretty Dun filly, complete with spots. <G>
