Genetics

Genotype options:

Appearance

Leopard appaloosa causes a white "blanket" with many spots of varying sizes. The spots should appear as holes in the white markings, showing the base coat underneath.

At minimal expression leopard appaloosa needs to have some white visible and it must be spotted in appearance, either by having holes in the white or by having white spots caused by snowflake appaloosa. A minimal blanket appaloosa must start around the rear and be visibly spotted either with holes in the blanket or with darker spots.

Leopard appaloosa can have very roaned edges on the white markings.

Mane and tail will be affected where white markings touch, however in the case of a blanket pattern that only covers the butt it is optional whether it affects the tail or not.

Minimum requirement:

  • A spotted blanket on the rump/croup.

Minimum requirements can be reduced or completely removed by the occlusion trait.

Allowed:

  • The edges of the white markings can be smooth, uneven, roaned, or a mix of all.
  • Can have small or large spots or a mix of both.

Not allowed:

  • May not be without spots.

Eye colour: Light blue

Optional: Optionally allows light blue eyes regardless if the white markings touch the eye or not.

Skin colour: Mottled

Mottled

Skin on areas affected by white markings must be light peachy pink or a lightened version of the natural skin colour. Can optionally have mottled/spotted skin even if no white spots are near. Mottled skin can also have small freckled holes in white markings.

Horn/hoof colour: Striped

Striped
Striped

Lightens naturally coloured horns and hooves where the white markings touch. Optionally lightens elemental/mutation horns and hooves. Can optionally be striped even if no white spots are touching.

The minimum requirements of Leopard appaloosa must still be met regardless if Dark spots is shown or not.

Dark spots is not listed in the phenotype, a Leopard appaloosa with Dark spots is still only written as Leopard appaloosa.

Appearance

Leopard appaloosa can have much darker spots than the main coat present, filling in the holes in the pattern or even appearing outside.

Dark spots can optionally affect mane and tail where they touch.

Allowed:

  • Can optionally affect mane and tail where it touches.

Eye colour:

Affects eye colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Skin colour:

Affects skin colour the same way leopard appaloosa does. Skin can optionally have dark spots as well.

Horn/hoof colour:

Affects horn and hoof colour the same way leopard appaloosa does. Dark spots can optionally darken horns/hooves where they touch.

Snowflake is an optional effect of Leopard appaloosa

The minimum requirements of Leopard appaloosa must still be met regardless if Snowflake is shown or not.

Snowflake is not listed in the phenotype, a Leopard appaloosa with Snowflake is still only written as Leopard appaloosa.

Appearance

Snowflake causes a "reverse leopard" appearance, with white spots on a colored coat.

The white spots should be same size or smaller than regular appaloosa spots, and can have a roaned appearance.

Snowflake should at minimum have a generous amount of spotting present on the rear (same range as minimal leopard appaloosa).

Snowflake appaloosa can be combined with other leopard appaloosa patterns, such as blanket leopard appaloosa and dark spots shown in the examples below.

Eye colour:

Affects eye colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Skin colour:

Affects skin colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Horn/hoof colour:

Affects horn and hoof colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Varnish is an optional effect of Leopard appaloosa

The minimum requirements of Leopard appaloosa must still be met regardless if Varnish is shown or not.

Varnish is not listed in the phenotype, a Leopard appaloosa with Varnish is still only written as Leopard appaloosa.

Appearance

Leopard appaloosa can have a varnished appearance, with a heavily roaned uneven pattern as if the white has been sandpapered off.

There should still be a spotted leopard pattern present on varnished leopard appaloosa, either as holes or dark spots in the varnish, or as snowflake appaloosa spots.

Eye colour:

Affects eye colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Skin colour:

Affects skin colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Horn/hoof colour:

Affects horn and hoof colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Mismarked is an optional effect of Leopard appaloosa

The minimum requirements of Leopard appaloosa must still be met regardless if Mismarked is shown or not.

Mismarked is not listed in the phenotype, a Leopard appaloosa with Mismarked is still only written as Leopard appaloosa.

Appearance

Mismarked appaloosa causes random areas to be absent of white, or have the dark spots/holes clumped together so tightly that they form larger splotches of colour.

Mismarked can appear anywhere on the body and in any size, however leopard appaloosa still needs to be visible (it can't be "fully" mismarked).

Eye colour:

Affects eye colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Skin colour:

Affects skin colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.

Horn/hoof colour:

Affects horn and hoof colour the same way leopard appaloosa does.
