Yes, we have 2 geldings. One is a double registered mini/pinto and the other an unregistered Shetland. We have been turning them out together and Bullet still tries to mount, but Gambler gives him a good kick, and I think that will break him of the habit. LOL!

So I guess he is a Shetland! I wonder what causes the curl/wave in some and not in others??

Interesting!! I was thinking maybe he was mixed with Bashkir or Nokota Pony. But I am not a breed snob, I was just curious. He is sure a pretty thing!! Thanks for your reply.

Our new 3 yr old pony, Bullet, has a curly winter coat. It is almost marcelled on his back!! His mane and tail are profuse, but not curly. Do you think he may be mixed with Nokota Pony or some other blood that has curly winter coats? Or do some Shetlands have them? None of our shetlands in...

It is absolutely the best thing that we bought Bullet. He and Gambler play for hours now and Gambler loves the company.

He is due to be wormed in Feb. I am feeding him a mix of alfalfa and grass hay, a handfull of Equus 3 and 1/4 cup of Omega Fields Horseshine twice a day . :DOH! I remember hearing a while back a little bit easier way, but I forget what it was. I will try your way. Thanks.

I love Bullet's size for my grandkids, but wondered at what age they stop growing taller and start filling out.

Oregon??? Man, that guy is getting around. Can you please five Joanne my email address, so she can send me a pic of Lucky? [email protected] Maybe one of these days I can buy a baby of his. Thanks so much for the info!!

I guess I have a couple more weeks to wait, lol. I put him out with my mini and he kept trying to mount him, which was not pleasing to Gambler, lol. But my little grandaughters came over and rode him today and he was a perfect gentleman, of course I was right there to be sure. He is easy...

Can I turn him out with my mini? How long does it take for the hormones to be gone? He seems very sweet and is very beautiful. Very happy with our new guy, who is going to be grandaughters barrel and gymkhana pony. Yee haw!!

Wow, 24!! Gambler is 15 now and still very healthy. Guess he is still considered a young'un, lol!! I am looking forward to 10 more years with him.

Thanks , Lewella!

That is what I am hoping!! Miranda is very petite, so I think she will be able to ride him forever, lol! Bullet is arriving today and we are all soooo excited. He is going to be her barrel and gymkhana pony. Yesterday I got him a purty bridle and purple lead and halter and purple Navajo pad...

What a shame no registered progeny. He looked like a mini Friesian, just a beautiful pony!! nBut thanks for the info. I wonder if she gelded him. Do you know if she is in Utah?

IMHO there are far too many stallions of every breed and size out there. The humane thing to do is geld all but the top 2% of horses. They are also a liability should someone get hurt.

Years ago we bought a weanling from Kay Peterson in Sheridan, Ca. We named him Lucky Onyx. The solid black beauty did very well at the area show and then we sold him back to Kay who sold him to Utah, I believe. I would love to know how he is doing and see a current pic of him. Thanks to...

Our new pony needs some mannering, would clicker training do the deed? What are the best ways to teach manners to a 3 yr old gelding??

Welcome, Kellie. The small equines are so much fun. Hope your new one eases some of your pain.

I have heard of 11 h weighing between 350-550 lbs. That is a big span, lol.
