Dark bay with spotted blanket. :)

[santana]

ok thanks i thought, that it was either a near leopard or dark bay with spotted blanket, but if it lightins out it will be a near leopard, (hoping he wont as i love his colour )

I now have this photo as my PC desktop at work :)

Yes I agree with you both on the dark bay with spotted blanket. It is a very nice example of what is probably my favorite Appaloosa markings.

I think we have similar tastes - I have my eye on either Private B Riker http://www.themendipstud.com/riker.htm r Joe Glow http://www.aphcuk.org/stallion_joeglow.htm or a future foal from my mare :D

(PBR seems to have roaned out a bit see http://www.aphcuk.org/stallion_privatebriker.htm which is more the colour he was in Sweden... so it might be Joe Glow is a better bet for the colour...)

[raingodz]

cvb,

They are both very nice, I think I prefer Joe Glo's markings but it would be a close thing. Would this be to put Fifi in foal?

The other day I noticed that there was what seems to be an Appaloosa Breeder (or atleast a stable with a very large number of Appaloosas) on the A616 near Crow Edge (south of Huddersfield) - might have to drive by slowly with my camera next time I'm up this way.

those pic are all good, im not gonner pick, :D :D

Hes lovely! he has what is called an extended blanket at the moment but im afraid that i would put money on him colouring out and getting more spotty! At least thats what it looks like in the photos.Whats his breeding? Willl be interesting to see some photos after his next coat change!

[iloveshearer]

i wish the foal in our field would be brave and let me stroke her!!! so cute

"he has what is called an extended blanket at the moment but im afraid that i would put money on him colouring out and getting more spotty! At least thats what it looks like in the photos."
that is likely his dad is a near leopard that has coloured out as well (umm i think....:o ) his full sister coloured out as well,
this is dad

"Whats his breeding?"
kaimaniaX santana (santana is just a big mix, i would say that he is 1/4 appy and 1/2 TB and 1/4 unknowen)

"i wish the foal in our field would be brave and let me stroke her!!! so cute"
hes not that brave, its just his daddy (we got santana for his nature-hes soo loveing-he will leat you do anything)

little montana has gone a lot more bay...... i want him to stay that colour that he is now

thanks everyone

Beautiful babies, adorable at that age aren't they? :p
Are you in the Canterbury region? Your background looks almost west coasty :)

[The Flying Irishman]

Wow Cochise, that mare is amazing, such a lovely kind and wise face

[Cochise]

Hehe, she would have to have the nature and patience of an angel to put up with Cheeky as a foal! Believe me, he's ten now and still acts like a two year old!

[mogadoga]

Hes a BEAUTY

[Keepsmiling]

cheeky is lovely, you say he is 10yrs now ?? do you have any recent pics, i woudl love to see what he looks like now !!!:D

[Cochise]

Definitely! Look in the Cafe area "Christmas Eve ride: New Zealand style"
He's in there, he goes that light colour in summer, and darker in winter :)

[santana]

nice mare, cochise (and i love the foal ),

"Are you in the Canterbury region? Your background looks almost west coasty"

Lucky! I'm going for a drive through there on either New Years day, or the second depending on how hungover I am. I'm camping in Nelson for a few days, then driving through to Picton to visit my brother and driving home down the coast. :)

[santana]

[Cochise]

Hey, sorry I was well gone by then! I've already driven through, (beautiful place, I love Havelock!) yesterday, and am back home now. :)
