Can you breed to paints together,&will you come out with a paint?

Question

I have a overeo paint mare,that has blue eyes,she's mostly redish brown with spalshes of white trhough out & a white blaze face,I'm thinking of breeding her to a paint stud that is mostly white with big redish brown splotches all over,his eyes are so bkue they're almost purple,what do you think I'll come out with,& is there any danger here?

Answer 1

You won't always get a paint even when you breed two paints together. You are more likely to get one, but there's no guarantee.

Answer 2

One of the parents (if not both) need to be homozygous if you want a paint baby. That way the baby will not only have spots, but the homozygous gene passes down a certain gene of color (white, black, etc.)

Answer 3

What she said above, and also do the research on Lethal White to understand your chances of it happening.
