makes no sense
what do you think????
also we will NOT include "albinos" in this topic!!!!!!!! anyone who says anything about them gets disqualified!!!!!!!!
Vote plz!!!!! white or grey!!!!??????????
You can call a white horse white if you want to, or a grey horse grey if you want to. Whatever you prefer, but there are only a few breeds that recognize "white" as a color in their registries. I have a registered appendix quarter horse and he has turned "white" with age, but I still refer to him as a grey.
That pony, "Storm Cloud" sounds adorable. He is a grey. All greys don't have dapples. :^)
P.S. Marie D. you get disqualified because you mentioned albino!!!! Har Har!!!!!
Vote plz!!!!! white or grey!!!!??????????
I think you should say white if it has white hair. That's what I usually say
Vote plz!!!!! white or grey!!!!??????????
I think the horse with the stormy fur would look pretty cool
Vote plz!!!!! white or grey!!!!??????????
i would call it grey of flea bitten( if it is). i use white for horses with pink skin and white hair even if they aren't true white.

Gray horses come in many shades just like bays, chestnuts, palominos and buckskins. It can range from snow white to steel gray and usually lightens with age, but technically, there is no such thing as a white horse. All gray horses have dark skin. The only horses with pink skin (besides where white markings are) are cremellos, perlinos and some "champagne" horses.

Hi! I've had horses for 25 years and the genetic rule of thumb is the albino has pink skin. period. The white horse can have from off grey to dark grey skin while a grey horse (dappled or note) can have darker grey skin to almost black. Hense the dappling. If you look at a paint and shave his coat, he will have a coat that matches the patches of the coat. So genetically, a white horse has light to grey hide ( no pink), and a grey horse will have a darker hide to match. If he has white socks, or a blaze look under the hair and you will see this to be a fact. The rule in registering any horse with a breeders association goes by COAT color, not skin or hide. So a grey will be based on the hue that is NOT white, yet leans towards a darker coat. The facial and leg marking goes by coat color and NOT anything else. A blaze is a blaze a sock is not a stocking and a bay tends to have four dark legs just like a buckskin. BUT the coat color of tan makes it a buckskin not a bay even though the leg markings and dark mane and tail are the same. Make sense? So appearance is everything and what in underneath does not. Did this help you? If you have any other questions, please ask. Marie

She's gray.
The only TRUE white horse is....albino...oops i said it.. :/
But I had to sorry!
They are the only true white horses becuase "white" is only a variation of gray. Usually "white" hair has gray colored hairs in it.

I don't care what you say about not using pink skinned horses in this question, because it is necessary to mention them to answer the question correctly. If a horse is white with black skin, the "scientific" color is grey. A horse that is white with pink skin is the only horse that can be called "white".

Grey is the correct term when referring to a horse that has changed color with age. White is appropriate when referring to a pattern that the horse is born with. Pintos and Appaloosas are born with white patterns, and it is also possible for the dark areas to turn grey as they mature.
If you wet down a grey horse with a white pattern, it is easier to see the difference.

Grey, absolutely.
You can call it what you want to but it doesn't change the fact that a horse with white hair on dark skin is a grey, that's the correct term and calling it anything else just makes you sound like someone who doesn't know much about horses.
It DOES make perfect sense if you understand that the horse you're talking about WILL have white hair in a few more years. That's how the grey modifier works. The horse is born with a darker coat, then gradually changes color over the years. There are different terms to describe certain points in the greying process, such as Dapple grey, Flea-bitten grey, Rose grey, Steel grey, etc. When the hair finally loses all it's pigment, then it's often called "White grey", but it's never correct to call it just plain "white".
There's a reason for the terms we have for colors... a white horse is completely different (and it's not an albino, by the way.) It's MUCH more confusing to call both horses with dark skin and white hair and horses with pink skin and white hair "white" since those colors are caused by COMPLETELY different genes.
Why are you getting upset at people for giving you explanations of why the term is correct or not? Why did you even make this topic if you won't listen to reason? Get over your attitude.
