This message is from: Don & Jane Brackett <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *** Diana... I have a 13.1 mare for sale that does not get any action on the sales list. But the Fjords I had listed at 15 hand had about 10 to 20 calls a piece. I think they are making them big because the market is wanting them big... (My thoughts on this... I would not mind other people commenting on this subject.)
I personally like shorter! :) Osa is 13.2 and Geilo 14.1. That extra 3 inches does make a stretch to mount and trimming his mane is more difficult(I use a step stool). Along those thoughts, we were wondering if you can make a pair out of two such different horses. We've started ground work with Geilo and have visions of pairs harness, 4 wheel carriage that will hold 4 passengers......but before we get too carried away with our dreams, would it be much more difficult than a more evenly matched pair. Geilo also has a longer stride and he's "the boss", won't even let Osa eat from his hay pile etc. They are good buddies though as long as Osa does what Geilo says.... Jane Maine where we are supposed to get 14 more inches of snow tonight....the snow is too deep already to ride much....I'm ready for spring.
