Standard grey male(x18) born 3-12-09. The mother is a black velvet and the father is a standard.

 ::silly::  From the parents' backgrounds, it sounds like you have a standard gray/TOV carrier. 

Should you decide to breed it later on, I would breed it to a black velvet or a brown velvet ... only because it should increase the percentage of chances for more black velvets or brown velvets, should you desire that.  Being a "carrier" means it has the genetics, but is not showing the actual look/color/markings of the black velvet.

Thanks Jo Ann for explaining that...no I doubt I'll ever breed him. Not with our breeder being so close.
