Re: [RC] [RC] Grays - Maryanne Gabbani

She was probably the colour of the flecks. Some greys are born a dark
grey colour and lighten. If they are born a chestnut colour then they
can go through all sorts of weird and wonderful colours before they go
grey/white. In Egypt, the grey to grey are called "azrah" or blue and
the red flecked greys " madammah" or bloody.  If they just have a rosy
tint they are called "mawardah" or rosy. I have at least one of each
around.

I was given a 1949 Arabian stud book and I noticed that in most cases it
listed the grays as Ch/G or B/G.  I'm assuming this means they were born
chestnut or bay and then grayed. Some were just listed as G.  Are any grays
actually born gray, or are they all born another color and turn gray?

I would like to know what color my flea-bit gray mare was born before she
"turned."
