How to add a new horse type
When I tried adding an edited image of horse with red eyes, it did not appear. Even though I had renamed it (horse_black1).
When the original horse, (horse_black) was deleted and replaced by the edited, it worked fine. The problem with this was that no normal black horse could appear. Does Anyone know how you can have both types of horses without losing any variant, just adding a new one?
Best Answer
You can't add a new horse type without modding the game, you can just edit it using resource packs (like you did).

Mix Gently. Some horse owners choose to introduce a new member to the herd gradually. This includes keeping the horse within view, but not within touching distance of the existing herd. After they've had a chance to smell and see each other from afar, they can be moved closer together in neighboring paddocks.How do you get horses to breed?
This may take days or even weeks. Introducing a new horse to a single resident is similar to introducing one horse to a herd of two of more. Your existing herd already has its pecking order established. Even if it's only a herd of two, one will be mostly dominant and the other will mostly give way.HOW TO BOND WITH A NEW HORSE (3 Ways) 🐴

You would have to get rid of at least one. Instead of replacing the black one you could replace a different colored one if the black one is important in your world.
You could also use skeleton or zombie horses because they are not original and have to be summoned. You can change there texture instead then spawn them with these commands:
Tamed Zombie Horse: /summon EntityHorse ~ ~ ~ {Type:3,Tame:1}
Untamed Zombie Horse: /summon EntityHorse ~ ~ ~ {Type:3}
Tamed Skeleton Horse: /summon EntityHorse ~ ~ ~ {Type:4,Tame:1}
Untamed Skeleton Horse: /summon EntityHorse ~ ~ ~ {Type:4}
