Arabian Colours

Hi, I'm relatively new to the game and I wanted some help with breeding. I'm not at the right level to begin breeding yet, but I'm trying to start a herd. I wanted to know the rarest/most desirable colours of Arabians, and how to breed them.
Thank you.

Black, Bay, Chestnut, and Gray. The horse I chose for gray is a younger than 15, afterwards, will turn pure whitish gray. :) Don't have any horses that are that color YET, but you can see by one of my favorites who died a few months ago, Kimba Shaddara.

Arabians can have Rabicano and Sabino for their markings; besides the normal star, strip, snip, etc. :) Heterozygous Sabino looks like this while I myself do not own a Heterozygous Rabicano owned by kimtia, they are around. :)
Le Thunder is a great example of what homozygous Sabino looks like on a Arabian. :) Baby Sparks Are Flyin is a Homozygous Rabicano, which looks the best on a black horse in my personnel opinion. :) These two markings can be together as well, as Rest In Love's color shows.

Flaxen Chestnut is the most rare and sought after color in Arabians, as the gene is recessive, which is ff. :) It will only show up on horses who are chestnut. If you buy or breed a horse who has a Ff gene, you have a chance of breeding a Flaxen chestnut if you breed to another Ff, or even a ff horse. :)

Also, if you want, you can join the Arabian Club. The current club president can give you some wonderful advice. :)

Hope this helps and welcome to Equiverse!!!

P.S. I'm not the best when it comes to talking about genotypes and phenotypes, so you may want to talk to someone more knowledgeable for that. :)
