When will this horse be grey?

    I think you're right Chris! At the rate her legs are lightening they'll probably grey out all the way soon. Time to enjoy that pretty blaze for as long as it lasts :)
    Oh, and I love me a fleabitten grey - they can look truly special!
    It's fun to get to see the changes all the way from the start.

    One of mine I bought at age 6 and he was totally "white" with a few dark hairs in mane and tail when seen up close. He was a beautiful silvery white and still is at age 19, but has a very few light brown spots about the size of a fingertip and a totally white mane and tail. The other one I bought at age 8 and he was white but fleabitten all over with varying sized "spots". At 8, he still had dark around his knees and hocks and a few dark hairs in his mane and tail. At age 21, he looks much the same, but it's been a long time since he had any dark at knees and hocks or in his mane and tail. The first is a purebred Arabian and the second is 15/16 Arabian.
    I think she will be fairly white at age six but may still have dark in her legs, mane and tail. It's a grey adventure!
