This is Betsy, technically "Show Me's Brassy Betsy C.", a blue papered Missouri Fox Trotter. Betsy has done a bit of everything from the arena to the trail to the broodmare pasture, & she does it all with style. She passes color on to her foals & is a great mom.

Is this mare for sale? You say that she passes color on to her foals. How many foals has she had and what colors were they? Were they all buckskin?
This mare has already been sold. She has had both palomino and buckskin foals depending on what she was bred to.
I do have other horses for sale.
Do you have any other foxtrotter mares? I would be interested in something with some kind of color and want something with a pretty smooth gait.
I have one other MFT mare. Please see today's post for a short video of her. I am not up on genetics, but I do believe Lacy carries a cream gene because she 'bleaches out' in the summer - she is not a true black. True blacks do not fade in the summer & are actually fairly rare. Here's a basic color chart that shows different possibilities when breeding a black horse to produce buckskin or palomino offspring. http://www.doubledilute.com/color-chart.htm
P.S. If you don't have to have a foxtrotter, I DO have some colored horses. I have a couple of double registered chocolate with flaxen mane & tail RMHA/KMSHA (Rocky Mtn./Kentucky Mtn.) fillies as well as some nice black & white Spotted Saddle Horses ~ both geldings & fillies. I have 3, 4, & 5 yr. olds depending on what you would be interested in. The RMHA/KMSHA do a nice 4 beat gait that is super for trail riding & they are known for their 'puppy dog' dispositions. The chocolate/flax or Silver Dapple is the RMHA signature color.
