Thank you!!Almost TOO adorable.
I believe with Shetlands, they can only be registered if both parents are registered.
How is she registered now?
How tall is the stallion you are considering. A lot depends on the hip of the mare and "room" to pass the foal. I know the "theory" is that the foal will only grow as big as momma can handle -- but I don't believe that. But I do believe you can go somewhat bigger -- depending on the heftiness of the daddy-to-be (whether he's refined or chunky-boned)
That would be a good suggestion, but I am not looking to breed smaller, I am looking to breed ASPC/AMHR.Well, I was thinking, that at 37" she's almost at the upper height for AMHR -- so you would probably do better to breed her "down" to stay within the standard height limitations for future foals. Just a thought!
That makes total sense, thank you very much for explaining that.No, I was thinking that she is a "B" size AMHR mini -- which runs 34" - 38" -- and I don't think she could be registered with the ASPC, so I was thinking if you went a couple of inches shorter, you could probably almost guarantee her AMHR foals would stay within the "B" range and not grow too tall to be registered with the AMHR.
I know plenty of people who love those tall minis -- but since I think you're "stuck" with her in the AMHR, I didn't want you to breed a foal that would be too tall for the "B" classification of the AMHR registry.
Haha, thanks Megan!! He is such a character, he follows me around everywhere, tries to nibble on my leg when I'm not looking...little stinker. He is so independent, he will run down the runway and go visit his daddy, Rio, without even wondering where mom is. Dream of course gets super worried and runs and bucks down the runway, so funny to watch. Once he sees her running, he will run away from her and run behind the stalls! When she finally catches him she bites his reer, exactly what a mom should do. lol!He is adorable!!
Thank you! He is handsome! <3He is just beautiful.......or should I say handsome!! Just a gorgeous boy and growing up so fast!!!
