  This is what the AQHA lost by refusing to register him.
The decision was based on his blue eyes and pinkish skin.
His only truly pink skin is under his white markings, as with all horses.

Pedigree |
 Blue
Eyed Paradise, owned by Natalie
Nelson, is the son of two AQHA registered horses, but not
registerable himself, because of prejudice against his skin and eye
color. Photo is at age 2. He must have received a cream gene from
each of his parents in order to be this cremello color - and they did,
indeed, each have one: they are buckskins, "bays with one cream
gene." He has mottled skin around his eyes and on his muzzle, and
blue eyes! |
