My daughter just hatched out around 35 guineas and we are going to get half of those when they get older.


Are you taunting me? .........:)

That's nice. A 16-2 Arab is a lot bigger horse than a 16-2 TB, simply because the TB has a lot of his height in protruding withers. I believe a 16-2 Arab would do me fine. The only problem I really have with Arabs is that it makes me nervous when my horse is smarter than I am. I know one Arab mare who's so smart I'm getting her to do my income taxes next spring.

He's full Arab but he is tall for a purebred. A real measured 15.2 (I know all owners say their horse is 15.2 but he really is ;~D)

It is a felt pad, which I like well enough and then the saddle guy has added foam to the middle of it to help fill his back...(it is my first western gear ~ever~ so I don't have another preference) ... The cinch and the breastcollar is that fuzzy stuff.

This is the little Arab Stallion I had in my teens.... talk about little, he was Egyptian and stood a little under 15 hands.

Below: This is Bay in my gear with my previously mentioned far too pudgy self on him. He has a big frame for an Arab compared to the very short backed profile of other Arabs I've had.

I like how Bay moves, he'd have made a good dressage horse if I'd have had him younger. At 22, he resented learning collection and really hates the work. His heart is on trail. Maybe my next horse will do dressage. Maybe I will be thin again, maybe a lot of things... ;~D

Looks like you have some awesome places to ride. Unfortunately all the land is being developed near the farm and our trail riding is becoming very limited.

I hope you folks unplug the electric fences while riding in fenced corrals?

I have a good friend who did quite a bit of hospital time as the result of his horse's bit touching an energized electric fence. Yikes!!...what a wreck.

Those trails and places are all on our property. It is pretty, and this is a gorgeous lush time of year.

Actually.... It is always on... and it's a little decieving, we are further from it than we look. Those are my fences, and Bay knows they're on all the time. I couldn't make him touch them if I tried. And gotta keep that pony on the other side while I ride. But good warning!
