new Abyssinian colt
Read about my new OB at the end below ...
I'm pretty happy in breeding my first Abyssinian colt from crossbreeds on my first try. The breed books helped.
He has No Red. Overall I'm very happy with his turn out.
Abebe - means "flourishing flower" in Ethiopian

7-Gen COI: 7.32%
HGP: 39,700
I still need to figure out his color ... any ideas or thoughts? Maybe when he is a year old? Got it, Silver Bay!

Re: new Abyssinian colt
As he is still so young, it will be hard to tell what color he will be when he is older

Re: new Abyssinian colt
Congrats on the colt!! He looks to be a Silver Chestnut at this ageJessi2 wrote:I'm pretty happy in breeding my first Abyssinian colt from crossbreeds on my first try. The breed books helped.

Re: new Ob colt
Quest completed!
I bred my First Ob colt
Meet "Anton" a Wild Bay Dun colt

No Reds
5* for Ob !
HGP: 31,644
7-Gen COI: 0%
Agility 33
Strength/Stamina 30
Balance 29
Movement 28
Tempo 20
Speed 13
Good Points: "Well, he knows what to do with his feet, moves well which is good. Man, this colt keeps a nice regular tempo, real nice! This colt's balance is average. Seems fairly agile, but hard to say for sure. " Not so bad "About average strength, nothing exciting. This colt isn't slow, but he is no Flash Gordon! Then again, no one is."
