He's dun at the moment but greying out round the eyes so I'm guessing he'll end up grey eventually. Parents are both passported as grey. Shame as he has pretty black forelegs and a dorsal stripe.

What you can't see there is the legs coming out of one hole, the tiny, tiny hind end and the wormy belly. Oh and the slightly long hooves. But nothing that isn't easily fixed hopefully.

Oh he is so cute! Landed on his lil hooves with you for sure. Will look forward to reading more about him, and more pics of course. :D

I think this is possibly the worst place to come to be talked out of a horse purchase. Unless it's something really silly/ridiculous!

He looks lovely they change so much he will look fine when finished.

My friend had an Arab filly that was much the same in front she went on to do ridden showing top level as an adult.

I'm feeling a bit sorry for him today. My other 2 couldn't give a monkeys and after some initial squealing over the gate have gone back up the hill and not bothered with him again. I can't turn him out yet as he's on 5 day Panacur, and he really does need more handling or I'll never see him again.

He's still wary but does actually approach now sometimes. I can take hold of his headcollar first time now and again which is an improvement on yesterday! He's starting to realise human = nice wither scratches. I'm going to let him out onto the hardstanding tomorrow and I might put the goats in with him at bedtime as he seems to like them, and he certainly needs the company.

Hopefully he can go out with some proper horse company in the not too distant future. Once I've convinced him nice things come in buckets we'll be halfway there.
