Common Horse Colorings?

[black_cat]

What are the most common horse colorings? I'm working on a shop (view thread here) and I'm trying to cover all the bases without drawing 40000 horses.

The most common would be the standard solids Black, Bay, Chestnut, Grey (might want to do a more steel grey and a more white or fleabitten grey)

Great! How common are socks, blazes (that's what they're called, right?) etc?

Pretty common, but they come in tons of combinations. Maybe do those as an as requested basis.

Ok!

Is paint (is that what it's called?) common?

Paint is a breed. Pinto is a color. Most people who should know the difference use Paint incorrectly.

The most common are- Chestnut, Brown, Bay, Black, White, Grey, Paint, IMO. A few easy colors, that look really cool are- Grulla/Grullo, Red Dun, Roan, and Dapple. Those are al pretty common too.

White

White is NOT a common color. Most "white" horses are actually greys and will have dark skin showing in lightly haired areas like around the eyes and the muzzle.

Okay, I didn't do any research on the colors, just going off what I see often. Thanks for the correction!
