The color of an ass on the run

This is an expression used by Brazilian children to describe any colour that they don't know how to define. For example, some complicated compound of green and blue with a hint of orange. I don't know of any equivalent expression in English.

This was told to me by a friend of mine from Rio de Janeiro, so it must be true. He didn't say whether the ass in question is of the donkey or arse variety, but I'm presuming the former.
