Kiger mustangs are most commonly dun in color, although the breed registry also allows bay, black and roan horses to be registered.
There are numerous shades of dun, all variations on a tan base, and many shades have their own names.
The Kiger Mesteño Association separates dun shades into four categories: dun, red dun, grulla, and claybank. "
Dun" as used by the Kiger registry covers dun horses with black points, and adds the terms zebra dun, dusty dun, smutty dun or coyote dun, depending on the exact shade of body color.
Red dun, or the variation "apricot dun", covers horses with points that are red, brown or flaxen.
Grulla covers horses with blueish, mousy or slate-colored bodies and black points, and these horses may also be called lobo duns, olive grullas, silver grullas or smutty grullas.
Claybank, another variation of red dun, describes Kiger horses who have golden body coats with red or orange tints and darker red points.
Dun horses may have primitive markings, which include any of the following: a dorsal stripe, lightened outer guard hairs on the manes and/or tails, zebra-like stripes on the upper legs, transverse striping over the upper shoulders, dark color around the muzzle, and ears with dark outlines and lighter interiors.

Kiger mustangs generally stand 13.2 to 15.2 hands (54 to 62 inches, 137 to 157 cm) high.
They are compact, well-muscled horses with deep chests and short backs.
In general, they are agile and intelligent, with the stamina and sure-footedness seen in many feral horse breeds.
They are generally bold but gentle and calm.
They are used for pleasure riding as well as endurance riding, assorted performance competition under saddle, driving, and many other situations where an athletic horse is desired.
