One for Ripley’s?

12 03 2007

Appaloosa Proud Peavy will be featured in an upcoming edition of Ripley’s Believe it or Not due to his unusual bi-coloured eye. Link

Splash and sabino (the latter is present in almost all breeds) can cause blue eyes; anyone else out there have a horse with a blue/brown eye?

I have a part arab/appaloosa with one brown eye and one very normal light blue eye (sometimes referred to as a wall eye). My horse is a sold appaloosa with a bay coat, with white ticking similiar to some heavy horses. Some people find his blue eye freaky as it is not as “warm” as his brown eye. Some others also think he must be blind in his blue eye but he definitely is not. I would be interested to hear from other horse owners with horses with one or both blue eyes. I have met a couple of people with different coloured eyes and my husband has a small brown patch in one of his blue eyes which he has had all his life.

I dont know why they’re taking him to Ripley’s, I mean it is perfectly cut in half color wise, but I have seen many paints with this trait. From having a few brown spots in their blue eyes, to having large portions of their blue eyes brown.

The unusual part of thing of this picture is that the color is split almost perfectly in half! Also, the Peavy line is not a paint line (Jen), it’s a very well known Appaloosa line.

I know this horse personnally. And he is as gentle as he is beautiful. And he is just a “Happy Appy”.

This horse is located in Tiffin, Ohio and will be 26 in March. I have personally met him - he’s beautiful, unique and loving,. His eye is very unusual.

I have a paint mare with one normal brown eye and her right eye looks just like the picture. My trainer also has a paint with two 1/2 blue eyes. I think its uncommon, but completely normal.

My friend rode a paint horse how had an eye exactly like that. She was going to buy him, but ended up not being able to.

To lollylegs.
That spot in your husbands eye probably isn’t just an odd patch. It may acctually be something else. You your eyes are tottaly amazing! And tell you things about your body you cant see from the outside. If there is a sertain ring around you pupil and its yellow that means your body is taking in sulfur. And if your pupil doesn’t dialate you have adrienal Fatigue(can’t sleep well) And sertian spots in your eyes correspond with parts of your body. (right eye, right side left eye, left side of the body(yes it corrisponds that way) But the patch depinding on what side and where may mean you have alot of built of “junk” in your body! So check out where the spot is, which side it’s on and then check it with a chart.
*NOTE: Some people who think the have brown eyes acctually have blue eyes! If you see a funny looking haysey blue around a darker eye its acctually telling you they have blue eyes and there is alot of cleaning needing to be done in to your organs, That can include colin, liver, kidneys, lounges YADDA YADDA. Just thought this might intrest you.

MY stud and the Blue/Brown eyed trait so mostly all of his colts have had Blue and Brown eye so i dont think it is that special. of corse it is really cool that the color is split perfictly down the middle but many horses and two colored eyes
