Got baby fever, can't wait for it to come out, so what do you guys think the little one will look like?

My mare is having her first foal I'm beyond excited. So it's -15 outside right now and I'm bored and speculating as to what it will look like would love to hear what you guys think. I am completely clueless.

Here is my photo stream baby pinto is the mare black paint is the sire

Update:

The baby will be colored that is the only thing we know for sure. He has thrown palomino, chestnut and black paints so far. This will be her first so we have no idea. I am hoping a bay pinto like the mom, but a taller like the dad, and it gets the fathers neck. And keeping my fingers crossed that it is a colt.

Update 2:

She is due in early June. So we are still a ways out but pretty excited. Her personality very much changed and she is far more food motivated then she ever has been before. She is also super testy I had to yank two of my less experienced students off of her because she simply has little tolerance for error now while riding. It has been a challenging pregnancy for us that is for sure, but she has proved herself in competition and as a pleasure mount so we wanted to make sure we passed on those genes to our future mounts. Plus hopefully the stallion will add a little speed to her baby. Two of our last extreme trail competitions we lost first by having slower time both first and us had no faults so it came down to speed and my mare is simply not the fastest!

    I'm thinking a high contrast paint. Dark spots on white background.

    I for one like lots and lots of spots, the "louder" the better. Some folks are the opposite and just want a dash of color someplace interesting.

    But, it's just a genetic throw of the dice. You could pop out a black horse with white socks.

    EDIT TO ADD:

    Your girl is just gorgeous! When is she due?

    Best of luck to you!

    Even if this Stallion is homozygous there is a possibility of a solid colored foal, A homozygous Stallion is considered Homozygous if 75% of his foals are colored but 25% can and sometimes are solid. You have 6 choices according to the color calculator Black, Bay or Chestnut both solid and with white. I bred my Bay and White APHA Mare to a big Black and white APHA Stallion who had never thrown a solid colored foal in 12 years of breeding but I got a solid Sorrel colt who was built like his sire, unfortunately the horse died the following January and I never bred her back so I sold both her and the colt.

    Both are very nice horse i think it will either look a lot like the father or mother but not a mix between. probably wither w/blk or w/rd but the baby is going to be pretty good luck
