That stripe is common on babies colors, especially appies, it probably isn't dun. Just a VERY VERY cute little red near leopard.

I have a big girl that the bugs just loooove to eat, and she has other allergies too. She had quite nasty hives for about two months, I put her on paper shavings and they went away. Now she still gets bug bites, but I try to keep her perpetually sprayed and I'm getting her a fly sheet. I feed my...

Love the pit bull analogy! I honestly don't believe that ANY building truly belongs there, other than a monument of sorts or rebuilding the towers. I'd be offended if they put up a Disneyland! That said.... the mosque is to be blocks away from the site. So? Not like every American studying the...

15 lbs of hay + 4 lbs triple crown senior + 1 lb ration balancer = 20 lbs of food. Even if she only got 10 lbs of hay that's still 15.... which leads me to believe that there is something wrong with her digestion. Unless of course that's split with the yearling she's with, or one of the grain...

Never heard that one before! I'm not a shetland person, but measuring there makes very little sense to me as the tissue there can actually become atrophied due to various reasons, so it's possible to "shrink" over time. Our old barn had a quarter pony with an odd build, and years of jumping with...

My minis do not get fed hay at all. When they got it, I had a comibned 18 colics, 13 of them from the same horse. 7 hospital visits. 1 surgery for impaction. (Results NOT typical.... not to drive anyone away from hay, there was a horse that never had an issue with it, but the one with the...

Had my first actually scary run in with a coyote tonight. When we lived in Los Angeles, the coyotes there were these scrawny, tiny, yappy little things. While trail riding we'd see them almost every day in the hills, and I ran into packs of 7 or 8 of them twice, we just kept riding and they...

Thanks for the suggestions and experiences everyone! Good to know that it's not entirely impossible that she could have taken with the first breeding... If she comes back in I'll likely wait till next spring to try again, gettin a bit late for me. We'll hopefully get at least the other two's...

She's smokey silver black. The test makes her smokey black, and throwing a silver buckskin from a plain buckskin means she's carrying silver. (The difference between single dilutes and double dilutes is that singles - i.e buckskins, smokey blacks, and palominos - only carry one copy of the...

VERY excited to announce we'll have our first home-bred foals next year! I've owned Freedom for 2 years now, but due to 2 moves and a colic surgery on another horse, didn't have the time or space. But NOW I'm home all day on 17 acres and life is good. So mare #1 - teased her daily for two...

Wow, that's frightening! I've seen Freedom chase down the kittens and attempt a stomp, but the kittens are always faster than him. Maybe he's just deciding that he needs to kill anything in his territory?

Dillon looks like a little bay Fresian! Loooove him!

She is awesome! She'd be beautiful solid brown, that brindle just makes her gorgeous!!!

LOL! So true. And sure fire way to get your characteristic horse to spot out - sell it! The grulla in my avatar was totally solid expect for mottling... until I got her. Now I need newer pics, but I clipped her this year and she has like 10-15 white spots all over and a bunch of white mixing in...

Well, you can guarantee appy if you breed fewspot to fewspot! Other than that go figure. I have a pintaloosa stallion I'm breeding (FINALLY this year) to 2 tobianos and a Happy Appy granddaughter with characteristics who is starting to snowflake out. No guarantees on anything with any of these...

(*Missing going to the North Hollywood Pride every year....*)

I think genotype is what belongs on papers, and both owners and the registries need to be educated on what phenotypes those can appear as. Palomino looks to me to be the single most misregistered color out there. My stallion's registered as palomino, he's anything but that! I'm also wondering...

Our new barn hes Nelsons in each stall. LOVE EM! The minis can't reach em, so they're all still bucketed, but its a lot easier to haul several tiny buckets to the water pump than it is constantly refilling for the biggies. I'd love to get some for the minis. At our last place, what made life...

Hey the LAEC! I miss that. You were 2 blocks from where I used to be! Your boy is BEAUTIFUL!! I could watch that trot alllll day. Congrats!

He's so cute! I love his sweet face and the eyes!
