What about those blue eyes??? Moon's foals will
not have blue eyes unless the mare carries the
gene for blue eyes. His are due to the fact that he
carries TWO copies of the cream dilution gene, the
gene that makes palomino, buckskin and smokey,  
but he can only pass on ONE copy, and one copy
does NOT make eyes blue. The same is true for his
pink skin, his foals would only have pink skin under
the white markings, just like any horse
.
Moon is NOT an albino. There are no albinos in the equine
world. Moon is a Double Dilute, which means he recieved one
cream dilution gene from his palomino dam and one cream
dilution gene from his palomino sire. When this happens
coat, skin and eye color are lightened TWICE. It also
means that Moon is homozygous for the cream gene that
creates palomino and buckskin, and he ALWAYS gives one
cream dilution gene. One gene dilutes sorrel to PALOMINO,
and black or bay to BUCKSKIN or PALOMINO (but with
other cremellos, smokey black is a possibility).  Moon has
been tested at U.C. Davis and is also homozygous for the
*agouti* gene, the gene that restricts black to the mane,
tail and legs, creating buckskins. Because Moon is also
homozygous for agouti, it means if your mare contributes
black, you will get a buckskin, every time. This is something
not found in all cremellos.
And that is straight from the horses mouth.
