skewbald

Brown-and-white spotted

Skewbald describes a horse or pony with patches of white and another color that isn't black—typically brown, chestnut, or bay: a skewbald mare.

The term distinguishes these animals from piebald horses, which have black and white patches.

Both words apply mainly to horses and are used in British English more than American.
