Blue roan = a black horse with roan, so a blue roan is the same as a black roan :)

A horse can only be registered in 4 clubs at the same time, so you need to remove the last horse from one of the clubs in order to register him in the roan club. The first horse should be able to be entered into the black club, he is already a member of Roan.

Here is a photo of a real life blue roan horse: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/17/e7/1d/17e71d60d0b501f4f3da2063daff80f2.jpg

Blue roans are roans so are members of the roan club. You must have the word black in the color name to be in the black club.

I think it is like the appaloosa club. Appaloosas (in game and in real life) can have many different patterns including roan, few spot, leopard, near leopard, solid blanket, spotted blanket, varnish, and probably a couple more that I can’t remember at the moment. There aren’t separate registries because they all have different gene combos, but all the combos are built on a single gene.

The exception is snowflake, I think because it takes several generations to breed it in the game.

I don’t know much about the breeders’ clubs in the game, but I think it works the same way. You can have blue roan, bay roan, red roan, and a million others, but they all have the same base gene, the roan gene.

I'm going to say its because it's not. =)) Champagne isn't listed as separate colors either because the champagne gene covers it all, just like roan covers all the other colors. I can see how that can be frustrating.

Bay/brown, Grey, champagne, creme, dun, liver, Pearl, mushroom and whites are all coat modifiers.

TECHNICALLY there is only 2 coat colors.. Chestnut (ee) and Black (EE, eE, Ee)..

Just as an example..
Bay/Brown is an Agouti gene (A, A(t), A(+)) acting on a Black coat (EE, Ee, eE).. technically being a black horse.. for a horse to represent as black however, it would need no Agouti modifiers which would show as 2 lower case "a"s (ex - EE, aa).. therefore, Bays are also represented by their coat modifiers ..

So the reason there is no "Blue" is because there's no such thing as a true "Blue" horse and there's no "Blue" coat modifiers.. Blue Roans are literally black horses with one or more roan genes which which sit on the Kit loci making it another white of the 6 you already mentioned.

Well if they were called black roans, and black duns etc then they'd be able to go in the black club. But blue roan and grulla are the names they have in this game so can't go in the black club. Blue isn't a colour so there is never going to be a blue club. Chestnuts that carry silver, so no silver in expression or their name however can go into the silver club. *shrugs* just the way they are
