Dilution Combinations

All example gradients are a range of acceptable colors, a single base cannot vary to these extremes.

Combining Dilutions can result in lighter coat colours that are otherwise unobtainable. Double and triple dilutions can create quite pale versions of their original bases. Single and double dilutions will retain the root base coat's eye colour, but triple dilutions and above will have blue eyes, typically very bright and pale. Combinations of four or more dilutions can result in a pure white horse with pink skin (or mottled skin if champagne is present).

Below are some examples of more common named combinations and the colors they create, in order from
Chestnut > Black > Bay / Wild Bay > Mealy
