TAWNYDUN STUD

TawnyDun Stud is one of the very few studs who will breed buckskin to buckskin. It does mean that I get blue eyed creme foals. However, the benefit is that our blue eyed creme offspring do not carry the grey gene, making them very rare. Also, as all our mares are homozygous for agouti, this makes the blue eyed creme offspring Perlino in colour (not Cremello) - again extremely rare. Perlino is a double dilute of creme with an agouti base, whereas Cremello is a double dilute of creme with the red factor base. A Perlino will produce buckskin when put with a bay, whereas a Cremello will produce palomino when put with a chestnut... Welcome to TawnyDun Stud Penny Makinson runs the TawnyDun Stud as a rare Connemara Pony Stud - it is possibly the only stud in England and Ireland not breeding with grey Connemara ponies, but using bay dun (buckskin) ponies so that the foals will not carry the dominant grey gene. Our foals will.
