What breed do you think these girls are?? *pics* (sorry)

[horseylass]

I noticed someone else had asked this not long ago, but i wondered what you thought of these girls.

I dont know anything about them really.

They are rescues, they we due to be shot due to the microchipping legislations (sp) so a lady took them from the breeder (who is based in cornwall) and i took them from her, as a LONG project

I also posted a thread to see if you guys could advice me on how big they'll make, so maybe now i have pics, you have a better idea?

So really, what breed do you think they are, and height they'll make?

They are approx 4 months old, 10.2 and 11h in height at the moment.

Thanks!

*really do hope the pics work*

Dartmoor Hill ponies - another term for small cross breeds.

Thinking the same, dartmoor hill pony. May be a bit of shetland chucked in there at some point.

I was thinking of native breeds from down south, but then i thought they are normally all solid colours?

 

[horseylass]

Anyone else have any ideas?

The registered dartmoors are yes. The hill ponies are all sorts of colours now as over time ppl have chucked other breeds out on the moor e.g. cobs and shetlands. Thats why a hill pony can consist of any number of mixed breeds.

Hi steph21, i have absolutely no idea...the lady didnt go into too much detail, just that the 60 she rescued this time, was the 3rd bunch she'd took off him this year...apparently he has lots of mare's and doesnt look after those properly either :S
