boredomtherapy.com/unusual-horse-colors/?as=6022122673284I could easily be convinced these are fakes. If so, still pretty cool, but if real, these are beautiful animals. You're being baited by morons on the other board and since it infuriates me at distance when I'm not remotely involved, I sense it might be annoying you as well. Don't lose it, although you never have. That's what they want. The subject matter is just cover for that goal. I know you know that, but anybody - given time - can succumb. These might settle the stomach waters. I hope these are actual animals, but think they are despite the site title. There are pintos and there are PINTOS. Also, didn't know greys turn white with age. Would have thought all horses turn grey with age. Goes to show.

I know that the silver buckskin and the last one are fakes. I ran across them earlier in the week.

Well, crap. Sorry, then. That's embarrassing. But I looked up the Appaloosas and they seem okay, and number 8, which I thought unreal. Yeah, a horse with its name written on the back.......
The golden tinge/champagne blond types I thought would be the likely fakes, if any. Disconcerting riding a horse resembling Gwyneth Paltrow in bearing and hair. Well, some are real. Take what I can get.

Misrepresented or not great looking images. I worked At Frontier Town, OC, MD and rode a horse that was a clone to #3 when I was a kid. It was the finest cutting horse I will ever ride, could stop on a dime, lateral movement was like a middle linebacker.
Regards,
Tom

I am sure they all could be real. Here is a picture of my leopard appaloosa. He was my best horse.  I get the direction the other guy is going. Thanks AZ Ranger |

Even the article has two different colors of the same horse. Once you Photoshop how do we know which is the original. My only point is there are horses that have that color as compared to some photo shopped color such as royal blue. If the color didn't exist that would be a problem. Every picture in this day and age can be changed. Some are within the range of reality.
As far as spelling horse on that picture whomever altered it was good. They moved the hind legs together and changed the bridle. The original looks funny to me in the area of the snaffle bit. The overall color looks to be in the range of real colors. I didn't notice the spelling and just scanned the horses. I did see a cow once where a farmer painted cow on the side with orange paint.
There is a difference among impossible, unusual or spectacular.
I've never let a color stop me from buying a good horse.

Now he is the most reliable horse that I have and the grandsons and guest get to ride him.  |

Here is a couple of paint horses that we rode from the Reno Creek road to the 212 Highway. What is on the one horse's nose? Something to do with flies? I love horses,I used to read horse magazines, go to any horse event within a couple horse of my home and have boxes of Beyer horses. Some kids had invisible friends growing up, I had an invisible horse. I love hearing about your horses and experiences with them. Thanks for sharing them. Beth |

Some kids had invisible friends growing up, I had an invisible horse. I love hearing about your horses and experiences with them. Thanks for sharing them. Beth A fly we don't have in Arizona. It bites their nose and the horse slams it nose into the ground to try and kill the fly. All of the horses started out that way. Not sure how well it worked. We had some riders with us that would not give their horse its head and it caused issues. They had horse experience but probably not this kind. The horses are ranch horses and mostly behave. Two years ago Billy put me on the ground and he was smiling. The terrain is what is and can be taxing if the rider fights the horse. We crossed the LBH at Reno's second crossing two times. On the first time my horse stumbled and then stuck his head under the water. From my saddle forward I could not see my horse. I took my feet out the stirrups and was ready to swim. Rio's head came back up and we continued the crossing as if nothing happened. Maybe he was looking to see what caused him to stumble. Regards AZ Ranger |
