Question Changing colour

My beautiful Lexie is now 11 months old and her winter coat is falling out she seems to be going a chocolate brown colour instead of her chestnutty colour, Will she stay like that or will she change again?

Lexie will probably change colour again, and maybe change 'tone' about 3/4 times. Until they are about 3 their colour can change quite a bit through each year, and that's without going into complex genetics!

Tia is 3 months old and her foal coat is starting to grow out... her once light brown bits around her eyes are now going a lovely chocolatey brown- see pics in photo gallery.
