I'm Perplexed and in Need of Some Help

Our filly that was born here on the ranch back in March has some issues going on...I'm hoping that some of you may have some idea as to what is going on with her because I have not ever encountered this type of issue before...

So about a month ago Angel had what appeared to be a scrape on her face except for it wasn't an actual scrape just a couple of lines where she had no hair. Which I didn't think much of it because I just figured she had hit her face and took off the hair. Well that has been some time and it looks exactly the same...So as of late she has been having these spots on her body that again looked like a bare skin spot but after closer examination I realized there is actually hair there it's just really dark. This little filly I believe will be a sorrel, she looks like a red dun not but I don't think that's genetically possible between the sire and dam. She also has yet to shed her winter coat as it was still cold here when she was born (FYI- I didn't have her bred for that time frame her previous owners did, I always like my foals born late April to May with our climate). So I am going to post these pictures and hopefully some of you have some insight to this..So please pass this along to your horse friends as well and ask them if they would come over and help me with this..

She has these little speckles every where also...

Legs, and yes it is hair there...
