Also I found a cute Friesian/Belgian cross online that is close by and for sale for only $900 and I really want him, but we can't afford a second horse right now. He turned two years old two days ago. He's fifteen hands. Calm and sweet. The reason his price is so low is because the owner has Parkinson's disease so a friend is selling the horses for him. The friend doesn't have proof that the colt is half Friesian, although he has met the dam so he knows the Belgian part is right. He's also not registered. I can definitely see the Friesian in him so I'd be willing to pay that price, but I can't . . . makes me so sad. He and Chrome are the same size and age. They'd be cute together and then my husband would have a horse to ride when they turn three. Oh well. We will find a perfect horse for my husband someday when the time is right. Here is a picture of the cute colt.

Chrome is looking much more gray now.
ReplyDeleteThat other colt is very cute. Yes, I can see the Friesian in him. That's too bad you can't get him but you probably don't need another mouth to feed right now.
Oh, I have raised 2 baby horses now. That's enough for me, LOL.
ReplyDeleteI let Enzo eat with his halter and rope all the time, so he learned to not freak out if he stepped on it. I did it with all my horses:)
