We still have great success with our foaling alarm which is worn attached to a headcollar. It sets off an alarm in the house (very loud like a beeping alarm...
Hi Sue, In this discussion of mares, I was initially thinking of Tiffany :) as she comes up frequently when I play with the hypo-matings feature from Del Mar. ...

Hi Sue, Isn't that true about mares foaling on the same day - we've had it happen far more often than you'd expect and with mares bred as much as ten days...

Hi Kelly, I wish I did have another Tiffany :-) She turned 23 in March and we have had her since she was only 4 1/2 months old. She has a beautiful filly ...
Hi Denise, I am and always will be a grey addict :-) I know they are harder to keep clean but they look so good when they are clean and in our Queensland ...

Hi Sue: Grey's are beautiful when they are clean and I love the look of a "sooty" dun. I have bred my stallion (I attached a recent photo of him) to two of my ...

Denise, Please explain what you feel a "sooty" dun is? I am not sure, but I may have one......thanks. Maureen ... ADVERTISEMENT [Image]...
Hi Maureen: I would describe a "sooty" dun as a dun (not buckskin) that has alot of black or black tipped hairs over the neck, back and rump. It may or may not...

Have you seen the Connemara stallion Gunsmoke? What color would you say he is? http://www.connemaras.com/wsbrs2.html Stephanie ... From: SeabornFrm@......
Yes, I would say that the pictures of Gunsmoke when he is not bodyclipped are a good representation of a "sooty Dun" color. I have seen some ponies with even...

Duns (ie buckskins) change colour with the seasons and changes of coat. Oxenholm Gideon could go from a rich gold to a sooty dun to light cream (especially if...

Hi Donna, The brand is Magic Breed and it is Australian. I'm sure though that it would be available in the US. It is advertised as 'used and recommended by...
Hi Maureen, I can answer the question about your filly being a roan or not: she's not. Like greys, roans have to have one parent who is a roan, and none of...

I know that, which is why I thought she was bay, even though her papers say she's dun. I'll have to post a photo. She looks pretty darn dun to me now. More...
