An entire field of Lupinus (also known as tremosos or chochos) was used to film the video. In Moscow, Russia, the plantation was located in a region where these wild species are normally found. The pale color of the horse specimen stood out against the flowers.
In addition to having blue eyes and pink fur, this rare horse has a magical appearance that seems straight out of a fairy tale. Horses with a genetic mutation from their mother and father are called Cremello (mom and dad) horses. The Cremello horse has an unmarked cream color and a white mane and tail. Cremello horses have blue eyes and pink fur, in addition to other physical characteristics. Don’t they look like they just stepped out of a fairy tale?
This horse seems to come out of nowhere, like something out of a fairy tale or a Disney movie. Both Rapunzel and Cinderella, or the Frozen sisters Elsa and Anna, rode white horses. However, this is not the case. He is a Cremello style horse. This breed is white with a mane and tail of the same color.
Their skin is a pinkish color, sometimes quite vivid and other times a little dull. Many people believe that the Cremello is an albino horse, however, it is not. His complexion appears as white as snow in the video.
The color of the horse’s hair is determined by the cream gene. Modifies black or brown fur, this gene will change the color of the hair and mane to a lighter tone. For the calf to be born with the same coat, it must be crossed with both pure parents. The American Morgan Horse, American Quarter Horse, and Akhal Teke are the most common breeds with the Cremello coat.
Many people assume that Cremellos horses are albino, prone to skin cancer or burning easily. The cream gene lightens a horse’s white coat, but it does not remove the white coat. There are pigments in their fur, skin and eyes that give them their distinctive color. The albino gene has not been found in horses. However, despite their pink skin, sunburn is more likely in horses with large white spots .
