I got an email from the people I got Razz from, and she sent me a color calculator.  It is really cool and so I thought I would share it.  With it you enter as much information on the sire and dam as you know and it comes up with the possibilities of foal color.  I did it for Razz and we got 
13.18% -  Buckskin Tovero  
13.18% -  Bay Tobiano  
13.18% -  Bay Tovero  
13.18% -  Buckskin Tobiano  
4.39% -  Bay  
4.39% -  Bay Overo  
4.39% -  Smoky Black Tobiano  
4.39% -  Black Tobiano  
4.39% -  Black Tovero  
4.39% -  Buckskin Overo  
4.39% -  Smoky Black Tovero  
4.39% -  Buckskin  
1.46% -  Smoky Black  
1.46% -  Black Overo  
1.46% -  Black  
1.46% -  Smoky Black Overo  
1.17% -  Palomino Tovero  
1.17% -  Chestnut Tobiano  
1.17% -  Chestnut Tovero  
1.17% -  Palomino Tobiano  
0.39% -  Chestnut Overo  
0.39% -  Chestnut  
0.39% -  Palomino  
0.39% -  Palomino Overo  
That is if shes buckskin, if shes actually smokey black she gets 
17.58% -  Smoky Black Tobiano  
17.58% -  Black Tobiano  
17.58% -  Black Tovero  
17.58% -  Smoky Black Tovero  
5.86% -  Smoky Black Overo  
5.86% -  Smoky Black  
5.86% -  Black Overo  
5.86% -  Black  
1.17% -  Chestnut Tovero  
1.17% -  Chestnut Tobiano  
1.17% -  Palomino Tobiano  
1.17% -  Palomino Tovero  
0.39% -  Chestnut Overo  
0.39% -  Chestnut  
0.39% -  Palomino Overo  
0.39% -  Palomino  
So a number of choices, not sure what its gonna be, will have to wait and find out.
And then for Gypsy
21.97% -  Bay Roan Overo  
21.97% -  Bay Roan  
21.97% -  Bay Overo  
21.97% -  Bay  
1.56% -  Chestnut Roan Overo  
1.56% -  Chestnut Roan  
1.56% -  Chestnut Overo  
1.56% -  Chestnut  
1.46% -  Blue Roan Overo  
1.46% -  Blue Roan  
1.46% -  Black Overo  
1.46% -  Black  
So Pretty much how I thought, will change if sire is homozygous for roan, but not sure about that  and as far as I know shes never had a "colored" foal.
And Belle
29.17% -  Buckskin  
29.17% -  Bay  
16.67% -  Palomino  
16.67% -  Chestnut  
4.17% -  Smoky Black  
4.17% -  Black  
She seems pretty simple compared to the rest.
And this year I was thinking of breeding Bailey(red dun) to Jardi's Tangle (palomino roan)and this is what I got:
12.50% -  Red Dun Roan  
12.50% -  Red Dun  
12.50% -  Palomino Roan  
12.50% -  Palomino  
12.50% -  Dunalino Roan  
12.50% -  Dunalino  
12.50% -  Chestnut Roan  
12.50% -  Chestnut  
So looks pretty even on different colors, not that it really matters to me what color tehy are, but I think bay is my favorite, and I might get one out of Belle, well have to wait and see.
