My buckskin mare's last born - 2 1/2 years old and already 15-3
Love my old mare so, had to track him down, and when I saw how much he acts like her, and his size... smile

That's a tall bugger. Big set of withers for sure.
I'm redoing my mules right now. Stepping down to something a lot shorter.

Thanks guys! I was hankering for one 16 hands, think by the time he's done growing, he'll make that and then some... Have had vets guestimate he'll end up 16 and 2 or 3.
He's a little thin now, but wormed and pouring the feed to him.
Been riding him every evening in the round pen, and took him down the bottom about 3/4 mile yesterday by himself. Mostly walking, but starting to get sweet little glimpses of his gait - his mama is 15-2 about 1300 lbs, and a good singlefooter smile

Looks like a walking horse?

Yep, of indeterminate origins lol -
most likely some TWH, maybe some American Saddlebred,
and who knows what else thrown in. He is showing signs
of having some nice gaits though, still riding him a little
every evening.

I can think of very few things as beautiful as a horse in its natural element.

Strength, beauty, power, and grace wrapped in a coat of colors that either blend perfectly, or are so bold as to physically holler said wild strength and grace.

Beauties, friend.

Maybe in another life Ill have a corral full.
