[Ag-eq] Horse colors

[Jewel]

I thought that a chestnut, usually, had a black mane and tail.

I've recently learned what some horse colors mean in ordinary terms, and 
thought other might be interested.

A bay horse is brown.  A dark bay is dark brown to almost black.
A chestnut is reddish-orange.  Usually the mane and tail are the same color 
as the body.
A sorrel is a chestnut with a lighter mane and tail.  Sounds lovely.
