I was out workin' with the crooked nose filly this morning so snapped some pix.

Here's the filly, after the work out. I looked and her teeth are fine, so she must have got kicked or something and messed her nose up a little this summer or fall. It shouldn't effect her colts, so she will still be fine for breeding stock. Come and get her NR or arrange for the transport. You need to come down to the Winter Stockshow in Rapid City this Jan/Feb, anyway, so you can pick her up then. Very Happy


Here is the chesnut colt "Chink" that started out a sorrel, Judith.



Here is a full brother to the crooked nose filly.


Here's the filly I bought this fall.



I had a hard time taking pix as they didn't want to stand very well.

And here's a horse I bought a year ago. Go ahead and pick him apart and tell me what all is wrong with him. I ain't real sure how well I like him yet. Time will tell. After you all offer your thoughts, I'll tell you what he is and how he's bred. He will turn 3 in the spring.



I don't think any of these pictures tell the true story on any of these horses, but that's all I could get. I ain't no Larry Larson, with horse pictures! Laughing

Thanks Jinglebob! I still say hang on to him Smile You sure he's not grey Smile ( yes I am being a smart bum) Do you still feel he is a bit thick in the throat? Ya cant see it in photos. I figure if you can cram your fist up in there he'll be just fine! The picture with the bigger bay peekin at the filly is sooo adorable!

He's thicker than I would like to see. I like them pencil necked rascals, who look good packin' a spade in a straight up rig. Very Happy

And that ain't the filly the big draft horse is peekin' at.

You didn't tell me what you thought of the one in the last two pictures. I want everyone to critic him and tell me what they really think. Go ahead, I can take it. Wink

He's just too homely, and he has a white foot to boot, so I guess I'll just have to come and get him out of your sight JB!

Weeelll, for the right price, you can sure have him. I'd prefer to wait until about next August tho'. Smile

And I hate that damn white foot! Mad

He's probably a real little powerhouse, but I think he's too short in
the hip. Probably too thick in the neck, too. But I like his legs and
feet, what I can see. And I don't mind his head either.

His neck ties in to his chest really low in front, I just noticed.
That looks rather odd.

Where he came from, all the horses were built just like him.

I kind of like ol cooked nose and her brother.. Couldn't tell you why, they just seem "different" and remember this is coming from the horse idiot in the back of he room.. The black hrned critter in the back ground reminds me of the 1/2 Maine 1/2 Dexter bull I sold this sping.. Thick SOB weighed as much as an Angus bull that had 6 inches on him.

For what its worth, just for the "pretty" aspect of it, I don't like his head. I think that it makes him look heavy up front. Good underline & real nice set to his hocks, ought to be handy.

I really like the sorrel with the blaze... The rest I would say was to coarse and thick... But looks are only skin deep.... I've seen alot of ugly really good riding horses and alot of pretty horses that weren't worth a damn...

He looks good to me, Jinglebob. The only place I'd fault him is that he only has one white leg instead of all four, and higher "stockings" would be my preference. Wink Smile There is no prettier horse color in my book than a stocking-legged blaze-faced bay, and they are kind of hard to come by.
