Another little pearl!

Just some few, quick words to tell you that we have another "pearl - girl" in our herd!
Nikita - Katinka and Camella Boys baby- has tested to carry the rare pearl gene :)
I`ll attach her test- results here:
Red-Factor Result:
E/e - Both black and red factors detected. Either E or e transmitted to offspring. Basic color is black, bay or brown in the absence of other modifying genes.

Agouti Result:
a/a - Only recessive allele detected. Black pigment distributed uniformly. Basic color is black in the absence of other modifying genes.

Cream Result:
N/N - No evidence for the Cream dilution altered sequence detected. Basic color is sorrel or chestnut, bay or black in the absence of other modifying genes.

Pearl Result:
N/Prl - One copy of the altered sequence detected. If Cream dilution is also present, a pseudo-double Cream dilute phenotype will result.
This little rare beauty will be for sale at weaning ;)
She is such a sweetheart - just like a gypsy cob should be!
Here together with our kids....
