History:
Ziggy was our first encounter with the Sunset dipper colouration, we had never seen it before...we aquired Ziggy and Elusive at the same time, though unlike Eluive, Ziggy wasn't wild, he was stable-bred. We are still tryng to find out hi bloodline to trace back to.
So far we have located his Dam and are absolutely excited that she shares the same colours as him.
We believe that it is a chestnut gene, that has darker qualities at the legs and face, tending for sabino markinfs of white up the legs and facial features.
We assume chestnut because dilutes dont exist in pure arab types unless crossbred and he isnt a cross.
Very flashy we seriousky fell in love with him at a saes yard, many stables were auctioning off thier crop due to resession, and were trying to get rid of thier lesser wanted stock. Goodness knows why he fell into the mix, perhaps it was an accident? Lucky for us, we love him so much! A real show-stopper with stamina to boot.
