I'm lookin to get one. Its always been a dream to raise a few ranch horses. I'm not a horseman but love the history of these spanish bred, cracker horses. How there gated,the old world, andalousion look and cow sence that most are born with. Quorter horses have some of there blood, so the history books say. U can google florida cracker horse assoation on the net if anybody might be interested in lookin at a few. Big muddy will post a pic of this horse for me soon. Some of yall know a horse. Please give me your appenions. I'll get some more pics if I get him.

Are you asking if you should get a stud, or that particular one?

First off let me say I don't know anything about Florida Cracker horses. We have had Quarter horses on the ranch for 49 years so that's what I grew up around.
Second your picture does nothing for this horse. Wrong angle, the horse wasn't presented very good at all.
That out if the way I will say his feet look good and his legs seem to be clean of blemishes. His back looks a little funky around the withers, could be why he is traveling with his head up. Cowboy

Look them up. Yea, there built defferent than a quorter but I like him. The owner had a bunch of otheres horses that she rode. He aint been on in a month but was real calm. He spun like a reanin horse and just acted like he enjoyed people. He's soft but I feal he just needs ridein the price is right. But I'm open to yalls coments before I decide.

If you like him that's all that matters. It's your dollars. Laughing

We are just speculating by looking at the picture. Very Happy

Your'r rite on my pic. Not to good. I've had a few people on the board of the fcha speek highly of him so I think I'll try him. I can't go wrong. It would caust me more to get my mares bred and haul them around than I would have to pay for him. if I get him I'll show yall some better pics. Bein double gated, he will cover some country and with out the gut bustin trot, I'll hold up better. Got a bunch of rupctures from surgury. A while bake, I read in a monthly news bullitan, the texas land and livestock junerial, about a horse bred in canada that was bein rode to texas and also a pack horse of same blood. It was to prove there toughness and fore lab work, dna, in texas? Anybody heard about this? Anyway, thanks, I'm still listin to.

From looking at him, I would say that he rides pretty smooth.. And prolly can travel very well. I'm like muddy and would certainly take a long look and feel of his withers.... If his withers are good..... What the heck.... Go for it.
