I AM HONORED THAT YOU CHOSE THE NAME VIKTOR FOR HIM. NOW I AM A GODMOTHER LOL yyyyyyaaayyyy and do not let the fact that he is small now. he has tons of growing to do and those pasterns are long. if you measure from the mid knee to his ankle that pastern is 90 percent of his adult height length. so measure them and than measure his dad and mom. i bet he will mature over 16 hands. . only time will tell and we have the time. oh and i sure need photos to be updated on his progress.

How soon will he be white?? i have had them go from tan to roan to grey , than as they age all white. i am referring to a gelding here that was born here and he is 24 years old now. his mother was a dapple grey arab/morgan cross and his father was arabian and bay but his lineage had alot of grey in it. so the colors change sometimes without our noticing it .
oh and for home work. lippi yo can take monthly photos of Viktor so we can see his color changes . lol pictures

Sure I will :-), I supose by the age of five he will be all white. His dad is 7 and he is already all white. For example my stallion is 10 and still gray, with dark grey legs and main. But he was black until age of 4. It dependes.

Look at those long legs! He is going to be stunning when he grows up. He has a very proud look to him.
I see Lisa is going through that awkward stage of losing her foal coat and shedding into her "big girl" coat.

I see Lisa is going through that awkward stage of losing her foal coat and shedding into her "big girl" coat. His hind legs(pasterns?!) are little bit "soft", but they will even out. And yes, Lisa is loosing her baby coat. She is a big girl now. Thank you

I love the idea too. I am going to try to remember to do that if I ever get or have to work with a young horse in the future.
