I find myself fascinated by
Arabian Genetics & the fact that as a breed they just don't carry
most of the Genes that other breeds do. So I have decided that I will
list all the Gene that the breed carries & what colors they can come
in as well as example pictures of those colors using the interactive
horse

All Arabian Sub Breeds carry the same genes. the fallowing Genes will never be in a purebred Arabian horse

The Gene for Sooty may be in the Arabians Genetic Code, I could not find a clear yes or no & I will accept any Sooty variant of the allowed colors.
Brindle, Birdcatcher spots, Bend Or spots, Bloody Shoulder Marks, Gulastra Plume,Chimeras,Somatic Mutations,Pangare, maybe accepted if the horse meets all other criteria for example photos go here
