Just thought I'd post a couple of pics of our BOGOF Dales x TB filly foal - we're not quite sure what she'll make so would be interested to hear people's thoughts!

We bought the mare unseen off an advert - total bargain as she's beautifully bred and is (very) unusually coloured for a Dales, being roan - She produced the filly about 2 months later. We traced back to where the mare had come from and found out she was covered by a TB.

Anyway - this is the foal - she seems a lot smaller than our pure Dales foals but then I suppose that's to be expected - but hopefully she'll at least make 14.2hh. Not sure what job she'll do but hopefully she'll make a nice pony for someone! She has a LOT of knee action which must only come from her mother!

The most recent pic I have of her

Oh - and we're not sure what colour Princess will go either - I'm voting for Roan like her mum though, judging by her tail and head.
 
Oh I like her - adorable face!! No idea what height she might make though - sorry!! I didn't think that Dales came in any other colour............ Do enlighten me please!
 
Ooh daisymay how is your Dales bred?

Thanks everyone

SN - Yep, Dales can come in black, brown, bay, grey or roan. There are VERY few Roan ponies around, so we're lucky to have her
