Do I have to have him checked for OLWS ?

Hi Charlie and again welcome to you, your boys and little Outlaw, when he arrives.

I think your two boys are just gorgeous, and the one in front is such a fantastic colour - is he your stallion? They are both a credit to you.

As there are no girls around and your two boys are good friends, then I think your idea of a slow fence introduction first, followed by pairing Outlaw with your gelding for a little while, should work very well. A lot of stallions are happy to share with yearlings, the trouble can start once the yearling gets to be 2 unless it has been gelded, especially if there are girls in the neighbourhood.

I think little Outlaw is very lucky to have found you and I'm sure he will soon fit in to his new home. He will certainly be very happy living with you and the boys!

Thank you very much

I hope he'll be happy at my place, will do my best to make him happy and too feel safe when he arrives and after.

Yes it's the one in front who is my stallion. Love his color too, he has a really great pedigree also so hope he'll pass the test as a breeding stallion next year. Hope Outlaw too will make it later at shows. He'd had really sweet and neat face as a foal

His color on the other hand... can't see if he's a bay, silver bay or chestnut. Will be a big surprise when he arrives

hello charlie and welcome to the forum

your little colt is lovely he looks like a silver bay to me

I also have a solid black horse with no white at all , he has blue eyes , he is splash ( proved through breediong ) and dna tested to carry frame so I would test to be safe

supaspot: Is blue eyes the norm for frame overo ? My boy has 2 brown eyes, and the same with his mother.

Many, if not most, Frames have brown eyes. While Frames sometimes have blue eyes, it is not essential.

Here are some new photos of my guy from the breeder. Hope he'll arrive this Saturday

Now I don't think he looks like a silver bay but can't figure out his color

Look at his lovely doll face

oh pretty boy! I am still fairly certain he is a bay sabino. Sabino causes 'muddling' of color like that. Check out some of the horses on www.pacificpintos.com. it is very neat to see how sabino can effect base color.

Love his pretty little face!

I still think he is very cute and I also think he will be very pleased to be with you in his new home. His poor owner looks as though she is having trouble with rain/floods at her place.

Do post some more pics once he's home and settled please.
