yes! I've been putting black oil sunflower seeds in her food, maybe not enough. I'll give it some more time, and she keeps getting her sun sheet off  |

She's cute!
In addition to the sunflower seeds and/or supplements, have you tried keeping her in during the day and turning her out at night?

Wow, she's attractive! She'd make a cute little hunter might I add =). Tell me if you're selling her. Haha.
Anyway, turning out with a fly sheet will help. And using color enhancing shampoos help too.. DO NOT USE THE RIO VISTA, it ENCOURAGES the red color, so dont use the Rio Vista. I'm going to try this Black Horse Henna stuff and I'll telly ou if it works.

the way you can tell if a horse is truely black though is if they're muzzle stays black, and doesn't also go brown..
at least, thats what i've read somewhere
