It might be fun to show how our horses have developed and matured from foals to adults. Here's the stallion I co-own with Erica, and have pictures to show how he's come along from suckling to adult. It would be neat to see a photographic history of one of your horses, too!

I have only raised one foal, but here she is.....my Moondancer

Whisper_aand_Dancer.jpg


And here she is all grown up and as of last weekend. Her neck is a bit thick and short, but her head was tilted in a bit here making it look worse. Still, I love to watch her trot.

I have had Anakin (AKS Ravenwood Ebonys Spanish Harlem) since he was a year old, so I will add him in too.

As a yearling:

and now (please forgive the lack of trimmed bridlepaths, etc)

I don't want to flood the thread, but I have three (and when this year's foal arrives four) generations of foal-to-grown photos. I have to get some scanned, but I think I'll come back and post one of our older horses' baby-to-adult photos, and then of their get's. This is going to be a fun thread to watch!
 
Can I play.......even though mine is only a yearling right now? He's the only foal I've had so far.

Young foal, and the picture that made me want to buy him :aktion033: .

his little brother Pyro will be fun to watch, too, as he's some better than Mouse, IMO.

(don't let Mouse hear that, we already have a bit of competitive jealousy around here).

I agree Jill, This is a great thread idea.

We can always rely on you Jill to start some great threads! Look at how these horses have changed!!!

Can you explain to me what 'long yearling ' means?

Bailey is 9 months old now so what category would he fall into?
 
As far as I know long yearling means closer to two year old.
 
Get rid of that ugly colt I said, just dump him, give him away! SF Mahogany Bay was an ugly duckling.

Really had to eat my words!

AMHR reserve national champioin senior stallion 32-34, AMHA regional champion AOTE Country Pleasure, AMHA and AMHR top ten in multiple halter and performance classes including AMHR versatility last year!

oh, yeah, eating crow, I am. :eek:
 
This is fun!

But, I don't think SF Mohogany Bay was ever an ugly duckling

And, yes, by long yearling, I mean one getting closer to 2yo.

Here's one of my favorites. Redrock Magic Maker as a weanling. He was AMHA World Top 10 together with his dam, Redrock Serena, in Mare and Current Year Foal.

Now as a 3 yr old. In limited showing, Magic Maker is AMHA Champion Senior Stallion, Reserve Amateur Champion Stallion and PtHA World Top 10 Miniature Sr Stallions and PtHA World Top 10 Miniature Color Stallions. He's breeding his first mares this year and I can't wait to see those foals next year! They should be outstanding!
