I just thought I would share pictures of my two projects for the summer. They are paint/draft cross mares. I'm working to get them broke to ride so that they can trail ride and go hilltopping. They almost look like Magikal Gypsy Vanners!!! :jaw: The other day when I was pulling their manes I was wondering how much I could get on ebay if I put their manes up on there stating that they have magical powers. Maybe I would get more for their feathers, as those will eventually get shaved off too. :P ;)

They look so sweet! Are they related? Love the markings and their big cute butts, and they will look sharp all trimmed up!

They could be related, not sure. They came from the same place.

Oh yeah....I can see it now..."BEST MATCHED PAIR" class. What a super driving team these girls would make! I think Laverne and Shirley would be great names. Or Kate and Allie? Or Paris and Nickie (never mind, bad idea).

How old are they? How tall? I bet they're going to be wonderful rides, built for comfort. Love the pictures!

They are supposed to be broke to drive, but I'm questioning that as they seem to have no experience with anything! Unfortunately their owner named them Sally and Rosie. Rosie is the one with the question mark looking thing on her face. They are six years old and one is probably 16.2 with the other being a little smaller, maybe 16h. I'll have to keep everybody updated on their progress. Today we worked on walking and trotting on the lunge line. That was a major task as neither one really feels the need to work. At least when I eventually get on them, I doubt they will do anything that requires much effort :teehee:

Oh, 16.2 and 16.0 are not little! I bet they can do anything you want them to...ride, drive, mosey. Are they yours for keeps or are you working on them for someone else? Hope you will share more pictures of their progress, please? I really like these girls.

They aren't mine. They belong to a friend of the family. They are a far cry from my fancy hunter!! It's interesting at least. Right now the hardest thing about them is getting them to pick up their feet. They aren't very good about it and I feel like an idiot standing there tugging and pushing trying to get them up! Next week they get to start wearing tack. I will definitely keep everybody updated as this might be highly entertaining.

Oooh, so gorgeous! I third the Laverne and Shirley re-naming!!! :clap: Their butts are beautimous! Maybe you could take some mane or tail hairs (or even feathers) and make majikal kohlrabi sticks :psycho: !

Well the beasts were sat on today. Well at least one was. Sally, the one with the star didn't really care too much about the whole ordeal and I was able to end up walking all over the ring by myself. Rosie (question mark on face) was not a fan of the whole ordeal. Lots of patience and trying and I was finally able to be led around on her while I layed across on my stomach. I wanted to get pictures of them on their big day, but there was nobody to take pictures. It was just me and my helper who was holding/leading. I promise to get pictures though. They are a really interesting pair.
