I love the mask on his face. The wide set hooked ears and what appears to be a long swirl make me think that he will be a friendly colt.

he was so fascinated with Jim sitting on the rail in the first photo, the second photo we were cleaning and going to add shavings, when he was all over them. poked a hole in the top and sprinted away, and back and sniffed...he is a welcome addition, and is so sweet, and friendly...

he is so much fun...but I have to always remember he is a colt, and not a puppy. he follows me everywhere. I love watching him explore his world. and I try to add new things to his world every day.

It is wonderful to finally see the joy your long awaited colt brings to you. They grow up fast so enjoy your sweet boy. Stormy looks to be a good mom, just as you would expect from a Kiger mare.

she is, and Riddle is so much like her, both have a good mind, calm, love their humans. he has or should have an awesome mind due to his parents..Last night he rared up at me twice, the first time i raised my arms used a loud stern voice, thought he would get it, he did it again, so that time I came down on his nose as if he were wearing a halter, and firmly said no, he got it and did not try that again. then I was clappnf really loud at first he was skittish but then he came to me to see, so I stopped. petted him, talked to him, then started clapping again, he stepped back but came forward and allowed me to clap all around his face head ears...he's a keeper for sure.

tonight he allowed my husband to brush him all over with the brush, he actually wanted more...we're trying to do different things, and not walk on egg shells. but when he does do things he shouldn't we do get on to him right away.tonight while I was cleaning the pen he head butted my side and tried ti bite me, smacked him on the nose told him no..he ran to mommy, and would not come near me for the longest while. I ignored him did my chore, then set up his orange cone, he came over to it, then to me and acted better...
