Has anyone noticed how different colours moult at different rates?

My three greys are moulting like there's no tomorrow. TC has almost got his summer coat completely, Dennis has lost his winter coat from his head, neck and shoulders but is still furry on his sides, back and bum. My grey shettie is still furry all over but it is coming out on mass.

My black shettie is hardly moulting in comparison. Her coat is taking on a brownish tinge from the sun and she is standing sweating but her coat is hardly coming out?

I would have thought that it would have been the other way round?

Anyone else noticed this?

Pasha is Bay and he's nearly finished moulting - all the clip lines have gone! The other horses (mainly bays, two black and one coloured) on the yard have barely started
