I know that at least -someone- wanted pictures of the mini horses my cousin's got yesterday  So, here they are: Tony Pony   Un-named colt   They are both 6 month old Mini colts and neither of them have been handled much at all. They don't even know how to lead and are quite skittish of fast movements and loud noises, but it shouldn't take much to get them calmed down. (sorry if the pics are large...) |

OMG, they are so cute. And gee, I wonder who the person who wanted the photos was? So demanding  The colouring of the one you weren't sure of is Gulastra Plume, which is an a manifestation of sabino that causes a light coloured tail on an otherwise solidly coloured horse. My advice... (I know you haven't asked for it), while teaching them to lead don't clip the lead onto the halter, rather run the rope through the ring so that if the babies spook they can pull back and get free rather than coming to a painful stop when the rope become taught and/or having a person "chase" them. |

Lol. I've never heard of that coloring... Interesting (*rushes off to look it up*). And it's not a problem, giving the advice. We have been using a butt-rope to teach them to move forwards, but they are stubborn little buggers! I'll pass along the information to my cousins about teaching them to lead. |

If you were being forced to move forwards, I'm sure you'd dig your heels in too.
