 Stanley's Pride - Equine Color Genetics
In cases where the foal coat on the legs is replaced by chestnut hair and the foal's mane and tail are not black, the foal will usually be chestnut.
Since most Tennessee Walking Horses are registered as foals between the ages of three to six months, it is sometimes difficult to relate the color of the foal coat to that of the maturing horse after the shedding of its birthday fuzz.
Another rule of equine genetics is that a foal will never turn grey unless one parent is grey.

 Chestnut - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Chestnut is also used as an adjective to describe a certain colour of coat in horses that resembles the colour of the chestnut nut.
Chestnuts (Castanea), including the chinkapins, are a genus of eight or nine species of trees and shrubs in the beech family Fagaceae, native to warm temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere.
To preserve chestnuts to eat through the winter, they must be made perfectly dry after they come out of their green husk; then put into a box or a barrel mixed with, and covered over by, fine and dry sand, three parts of sand to one part of chestnuts.
