Foal Color Prediction

Horse Coat Color Calculator

Predict a foal’s possible coat colors from either the parents’ DNA results or their visible colors. Every outcome is listed with its chance and the exact genotype behind it.

DNA or color modeDilutionsWhite patterns
What it does
🧬
Two ways to use it. Enter each parent’s tested genes, or just pick their visible coat colors and patterns.
🎨
Every possible foal color. Shows the full list of outcomes with the percentage chance of each.
🔢
Genetic codes included. Each color lists the genotype(s) that produce it, so you see the reason behind the odds.
✨
Base, dilution, and pattern genes. Covers red and black, agouti, cream, dun, champagne, silver, gray, roan, tobiano, and more.
How to use it
1
Pick a mode. DNA results if you have test panels, or color only if you do not.
2
Enter both parents. Their genes, or their visible colors plus any white patterns.
3
Read the odds. See each possible foal color, its chance, and its genetic code.

Color-only mode assumes hidden zygosity is equally likely, so tested DNA results are always more precise.

Genetic Disease Screen

Quarter Horse Disease Calculator

See the odds a foal inherits a genetic disease before you breed. Enter each parent’s panel results and the calculator returns the foal’s risk for every condition on the stock horse panel.

Multi-panel screenCarrier + affected oddsRisk flags

⚠️
Risk flags. Highlights any cross that could produce an affected or high risk foal.
🐎
Made for stock horses. Built around the Quarter, Paint, and Appaloosa disease panel.
How to use it
1
Enter each parent’s results. Choose N/N, N/affected, or affected/affected for each disease.
2
Review the foal’s odds. Percentages appear for every condition.
3
Check the warnings. Any risky pairing is flagged so you can plan around it.
