Okay, so I bred my Watercolor Onyx boy to a flashy leopard mare, hoping to get a baby with some combination of appaloosa, Watercolor, and Onyx, ideally all three. Here's the parents:

WT1 Painted Solstice

WT1 Lux Arcana

And the baby...

Lots of spacing for dramatic effect...

$ Lost in the Black

She's black. Just black.

So much sympathy! At least you’re able to get a little laugh out of her.

The odds of her inheriting NONE of the three is like 12.5% =))
I opened her page and clicked right over to testing before the picture could load, like I do when I don't have room to take them out of the pasture and bulk test them and am too impatient to wait, and she passed all her testing and I ran the genetics test and it said 'Black'. And I'm thinking 'Huh, I thought she was one of the fantasy babies? Maybe she's het chin? Or something?" And then I looked at her parents and genome and just sat there and laughed.

Oh dear, I definitely have gotten some babies like that before :))
