Sooty shares a similar concept to roan, but instead of white hairs mixing with the base coat, it's black hairs. Sooty will always be slightly textured and can be textured quite extremely as well.
- Mane, flight feathers and webbing will be affected by sooty.
- Can cause dapples along the edges.

Sooty Range
Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed. Sooty must show at least 10-15% of the base coat.
The black palettes provided are a simple guide, as different coats will likely have different tinted blacks. Though, these guides do set what the darkest possible natural black can be in terms of hex code. Anything that is darker than the palettes will be asked to be changed.

Sabino is a paint gene located on the same locus as other Kit Genes(Tobiano, Roan, and Dom White). Sabino is a pretty free paint marking. It typically starts at the legs and belly and works its way up.
- Flight feathers and webbing will be white where marking touches.
- Hoof color will be pink where marking touches.
- Sabino will never have smooth edges to its marks.

The below palettes go as white intended for a black - bay - chestnut from left to right. Warm coats will have warm toned white, while cool tones will have cool toned whites.

Splash is another simple paint marking. As its name may imply, splash makes it look like your Beatus was splashed with white paint. Splash will always start from the legs and belly. Splash will never have textured edges or extremely sharp points/edges.
- Flight feathers and webbing will be white where markings touch.
- Hoof color will be pink where markings touch.

Beatus are not exempt from Lethal White Syndrome, which is where a foal does not fully develop before birth. Three different genes are known to cause this, Splash, Dom White, and Overo.
Splash has 3 variations, each with varying degrees of risks with breeding. You can check what type of splash you Beatus has with an LWS Tester.

• Spl-1 is 100% safe in both nSpl-1 and SplSpl-1.
• Spl-2 has risks in both non-dom and dom forms.
  • nSpl-2 has the following risks; 10% chance of deafness, 5% chance of blind and deafness, 85% chance of a healthy foal.
  • SplSpl-2 has the following risks; 50% chance of deafness, 25% chance of blind and deafness, 20% chance of being healthy, 5% chance of a deceased foal.
• Spl-3 carries the most risks, in both forms.
  • nSpl-3 has the following risks; 35% chance of deafness, 50% chance of blind and deafness, 5% chance of a healthy foal, 10% chance of a deceased foal.
  • SplSpl-3 has a 100% death rate.

Eye Colors
Blue, Light Blue

Splash Range
Blue is the minimum required expression. Splash has two minimal variations, the one displayed on the range, along with hidden splash, which is where only the eyes are affected, turning blue.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.
Red is the area expression is not allowed. Splash must show at least 10-15% of the base coat. Maximum expressions will always have blue eyes.
The white palettes provided are a simple guide, as different coats will likely have different tinted whites. Though, these guides do set what the palest possible natural white can be in terms of hex code. Anything that is paler than the palettes will be asked to be changed.
The below palettes go as white intended for a black - bay - chestnut from left to right. Warm coats will have warm toned white, while cool tones will have cool toned whites.

Varnish Roan is the most basic variation of the leopard complex gene and is the foundation for other variants. Varnish is always heavily textured and in more maximum expression can sometimes be mistaken as a fewspot appaloosa. 'Corn spots' are always found on varnish roans as it is an appaloosa gene, there will never be a large number of them, but are typically more frequent than corn spots on a kit roan.
- Flight feathers and webbing can be white where marking touches.
- Mane and tail can be white where marking touches.
- Wings and mane can be affected separately by varnish.

Blue is the minimum required expression.
Yellow is the maximum optional expression.

Heterochromia: Complete causes the eyes to be two different colors. If an eye color trait is present[natural, Cr linked, or unnatural] you can choose for one eye to be that shade and the other to be natural to the coat, or for both eyes to be two different shades of the same color. When present with color muts, the eyes will be two different colors from the color mut.
