George is looking good, Chance. He may not get overly tall but he should reach 15 hands I would imagine. He still has a lot of time left to grow. Should be pretty light on his feet too if he's like it parents. I have never seen a Colt with a better demeanor and he was a real character.

Lol...I think you have a VERY short horse there Kind of reminds me when my brother and I would play in the irrigation when we were little. We'd try to trick each other by standing on our knees and then we'd point out how DEEP the water was in the section. Great pictures

He is only a little over a year old and one inch short of 14 hands already........ He still has 3 years worth of growing to do.

There is nothing better than some cows to push around. When mine were at a different pasture the cows and the bull got told when they could drink and where they should eat. Bravo as a two year old told the bull that some sweet corn from the garden was too good for cows. I've had a mix of heights from Chinook and Cedar, they all got great nutrition. Bella and Prairie were really tall, Bravo was shorter, about 14.2-3. I can't say that there was any reason for the difference.

I'm fairly new to Kigers as well.
This is really interesting to hear. From what I understand, most breeds of horses get their height by about four?
I'm certainly not complaining. I was just curious if that was true? Are Kigers a little slower to fully mature? I have heard that's common in Spanish breeds.
