Fire Magic is pretty and all but he is not very red. He sired a colt that came out a true chestnut friesian. His colt's name is Renoir and if you google his name with the words "red friesian" it will take you to his website. I have to say Fire Magic is a really cool name for a red friesian.

@coley4horses For your information. Red is the term used in the Friesian World for the "red Friesian horses." Fire Magic is a liver chestnut, his son is a sorrel but both are red's. You make it sound like Fire Magic is not a red and in fact he is very red although a liver chestnut with blond feathers. I have seen pictures of his son and he is a lovely color like his Mother , who is not chestnut but sorrel. You might want to bone up on color standards and true meanings before making statements.

Wow ground manners much? Hes a handsome guy though! Nice conformation. Is he in the stud book?

[equidancer]

Ground manners a bit better now, he is a bouncy guy.LOL. Absolutely in the stud book and at last check was the only registered RED in Fhana. Pass by the manners and see him work? Another page, he's the greatest.

hes gorgeous! does that mean hes homozygous recessive, then his foals wouldnt be chesnut..... but he would! Hes fiesty matches his colour :)

[equidancer]

No it means he does pass on the red gene and sires red colts

[LadyKatika]

Being homozygous is NOT the same as "breeding true." It simply means that the two genes that control a give locus are the same. Any homozygous animal is capable of producing offspring that is NOT the same color as them, depending on the genetics of the individual they are bred to. BTW, equidancer, I have a cremello FSH mare that has her eyes on Fire Magic ;)

Dianne, It would truely make my heart attack, having to read so many uneducated and off the wall comments. This animal is well behaved-handsome-talented-baro­que and noble as all get out! What a fine representative of the Friesian horse and successful and a great promtion for the breed!

I read somewhere only first generation red Friesians can be registered, but if a red foal out of two reds can't...

[99Jessabel99]

He's lovely.

Why would anyone think he's ruining the breed with his color? How can a horse's coat coloring be "wrong"? Who made it a rule that all Friesians have to be black? Some people think the red coloring is gorgeous. I am one of those people. ;)

Fire Magic is SO not red! His son, Renoir, is an actual red stud with lots of class.

Gorgeous Homozygous RED FREISIAN Stallion. I love when people think they know what they are talking about --- WHEN they DON'T

I would love to have a cremello TB mare or Cremello Saddlebred to cross with him
