Appearance

Common primitive markings are stripes on the knees/hocks ("leg barring"), stripes/barring around the withers, and "cobwebbing" on the forehead, but can also extend further.

Primitive markings should be the same color as the undiluted coat "under" the dun, and mimic the appearance of zebra or zorse stripes. This means primitive markings may not be significantly darker than the undiluted legs or the dorsal stripe, they should be the same color. On bay/seal/tanpoint-based coats, the primitive markings are allowed to be the same colour as the mane/tail.
