Another roller color question. Indigo? TS1? Both?

Post by TheWantedOutlaw »

Was told this was indigo which seems legit however, the gold sheen on his neck and his tail bar makes me wonder.. any info on this color would be appreciated.

Appears to be indigo, (and sooty), but yes there is definitely something else going on there. Perhaps others can take a stab at it.

Ill post a pic of his offspring from last season a little later... in the mean time. This was his mate last season.. 99% sure she is spread opal but could be wrong.. she also has a silver neck sheen.
