WHAT IS A COLOURED ANIMAL?

The definition of a “coloured” animal is black and white (piebald) or white and any other colour, e.g, bay, roan, chestnut (skewbald) with a patch of naturally occuring white coat. This white patch must be on the body above the level of the stifle or elbow, excluding face markings. Any white marking below this does not qualify. Manes and tails may also be white or have white in them. Appaloosa animals with belly markings do not qualify.

If there is any doubt as to whether an animal is classified as 'coloured' photographs showing all markings should be submitted to CHAPS(UK) Administration for referral to Council at the next available meeting, if further clarification is required a representative of CHAPS(UK) Council will be required to inspect the animal at a mutually agreed location. Should further verification prove necessary, DNA testing will be required for the presence of the'coloured' gene.
