My old pony had this color. Some may call it a chocolate palomino...but my vet called it a red roan. I think this is before people started using the term chocolate pally.
My mom and I called him a roan anyways...but yours could be either a liver chestnut or choc. Pally to me.
I know... but again, this is before this term was used.
He was cute, and looked like a chocolate pally in the winter, furry with dapples. In the summer he would shed out with a deep brown almost black coat and very light blonde mane and tail :)
Ok I know this one exactly! He looks exactly like my mare when she was 10 months old. Her color is called Frosty Lobo. It's a recessive gene that combines several colors. Especially bay and palomino.
It's weird but that's what it's called! But my mare darkened out when she got to about 16 mos. And lost the blonde tail. She's now a dark bay
