I’ve been wanting to know my geldings parentage forever. I bought him at 10 months old from someone who had purchased him from the breeder but was giving up, she couldn’t tell me much about him other than his mother was a TB and just gave me an email address. I tried the email but never got a reply.
Fast forward to today, I’ve been trying to find out more about his dam line but with no luck and randomly thought to look on Facebook. To my surprise his breeder now has a Facebook page! So after a couple of messages back and forth it’s worked out his dam was an unraced TB and his sire was one absolute unit of a gypsy cob! It certainly explains where all my boys hair comes from as he has a lot of it for something part TB!
I’d be interested to see what people think of dad, I have no real idea what a good cob should look like but he looks like a nice chap to me?
Also does anyone else out there have a Cob x TB? I’d be interested to see pics!
I think he stood around 14.3hh/15hh.
I even have a family picture! Mum behind and Dad in the background.
And this is how my boy turned out. Think I got quite like lucky with that cross ?
Sorry for the picture overload!
