It's possible he's het but some of those foals look normal/non dp to me so i don't think he is hom dp.

Just looked at his other foals and he is definitely not homozygous dp. This is a StySty palomino mare by him. If he were hom dp, she'd be a chocolate palomino.

Sorry my examples are from server 2!
Here is an example of a hom dp brown:

AHH 2G Rhythm of Night pD

i am pretty sure this a hom dp brown based buckskin

Het dp brown:

AHH 1666220

If you want to send straws, i can even breed him to some mares on the public breeding list and see what happens. I will yum all the resulting foals :) Just an option. I'm so curious now lol

lol well with black based horses its harder to tell. But Just keep an eye out :) He still produces beautiful babies

Here are a few browns that are super light compared to the others and both are Hom Sooty.

Still some beautiful babies non the less ;D

No! Dont give up! The more you try the more you learn! I still dont have DP down in anything other then chestnut based horses!

That would be a good place to start! Once it comes back on the roving gene sales I might splurge on it myself!
I love brown and dark buckskins but since I dont understand how DP and brown horses work yet, that's my next project
I would love to recreate this boy!

I pomised to try to explain DP browns etc a while ago, I did even started a post but had no time to finish it. I will try and see if I can get a good explanation out this monday, as DP browns/bays/bucks are a lot harder to see and thus need a lot more examples!

In the meantime, feel free to look at my E? based DP horses (and see how they compare to yours or to horses with the same genetics but without my DP prefix).

And above all: don't give up! It took me quite some time to learn it too (and I am still mistaken from time to time) but that is what learning is about! And it is more fun if you get it after some hard times trying to understand it than when it would be clear at the first sight right?

Thank you @Master StablesMS for the examples! On the plus side I found this guy from one of my other studs! Sad he got snipped. He's a White Spotted Liver Red Dun
