Colored disasters

Now I'm going to highlight some stallions that are just being bred because they are colorful so they have a right to pass on their color and bad conformation.

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1401238&share_this=Y (This guy, it's hard to get a real grasp on his conformation because of the angle of this photo but who would want to breed to that?)

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1386871&share_this=Y (Another horse being bred just because he has a pretty color on him. Note the lack of any accomplishments mentioned except High Percentage Dun Factor Producer and Homozygous Tobiano.)

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1359604&share_this=Y (Rat tailed, pig eyed, small eared appy for his first year at stud. No accomplishments listed except for siring one black and one dark bay foal.)

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1326885&share_this=Y (Straght shouldered dirty horse here.)

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1330597&share_this=Y (Another straight shoulder. And they say his gaits are so soft you feel like your floating. No accomplishments except for siring color.)

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1367189&share_this=Y (No one wants to breed more Mustangs. There are already enough as there is.)

http://www.dreamhorse.com/show_horse.php?form_horse_id=1351176&share_this=Y (Never breed a POA and a APH. You end up getting this.)

Now I'm not saying that all colored horses are bad. Just most seem to get bred just because they are colorful. Like the people couldn't see past the perlino, appaloosa, palomino, cremello, pinto hide. Here is a colored stallion I think is not only gorgeous in conformation but in color.
