The mane looks like a wig!

Red roan fighting with a blue roan? Or a grey with highlights put in by a teenager? :lol:

Flaxen liver chestnut going grey. The funky dark liver with red mane. He's cute!

I think he's a bay roan whose child decided to see what he'd look like as a chestnut. She just did the mane and tail to see.... ;)

Seriously, spill. How old is he and what is he? :)

Just for reference for those that believe roan can't/won't cause roaning on the head:

He tested negative for gray.

He might be roan but he sure looks like he's going grey too. Who is he anyway? Who is the foal, that's cute!
