Austrian Pinzgauer w/ Feathers *PROJECT*
The Austrian Pinzgauer with FEATHERS *PROJECT*
So, i'm looking to create Austrian Pinzgauer's with feathers, anyone have any suggestions on how I could get there?

Re: Austrian Pinzgauer w/ Feathers *PROJECT*
I think this will be an awesome project to work on for you, what I would do is begin with purebreds and breed them to belgians with maximum feathers and then breed the feathered offspring back to purebreds and their feathered offspring. This will produce purebreds with more feather, but if you'd still like more feather you could breed the feathered purebreds to more feathered belgians to begin the cycle again...
Thats what I would do, but really it's up to you and there might be some better suggestions that you'd rather do.
Good Luck

I have many feathered horses, you could probably breed to a couple of my mixed or grade feathered horses to produce half Austrian Pinzgauer's and then keep crossing them. Especially if you select the foals that grow up with feather tufts, I'm sure you will have feathered Austrian Pinzgauer's in no time!
