Curly PoniesAfter searching world wide for a small curly pony for a client, I realized how rare curly ponies really are. Thus the dream was launched to start a small curly pony breeding program to help those children which are allergic to regular ponies. Like curly horses, curly ponies are usually hypoallergenic. We chose Captain Midnight EB, from Bancroft Curly Ponies, as our future curly pony herd sire. Captain is a black, curly pony, miniature cross. He is mostly smooth coated with a few swirls in his coat and waves in his tail hair. We knew we had to find a very curly pony mare if we wanted the curly gene to be passed onto their offspring. We found * OYY Rosalee at Top O' The Hill Farm. She is a palomino with a pretty split mane and lots of curls. Both ponies are still very young at this time so it will not be until 2010 that we hope to have a curly pony foal for sale from the pair.
Captain Midnight EB, ICHO pending - Born May 1, 2007
Sire: * Pirate's Little Skipper Captain Midnight has a beautiful sculptured head with large kind eyes. He has the friendly calm temperament of the curly horse, with big athletic movement for such a little one. Captain is expected to mature around 38".
* OYY Rosalee ABC 679 3/4, ICHO 914-D - Born May 22, 2007
Dam: * Biscuit ABC 2422 Rosalee is a lovely golden palomino in the summer with lighter curls during the winter time. She has large eyes with curled eyelashes, a pretty split mane, and a friendly, willing temperament. She is quite athletic, as she jumped the gate in her pasture, one of the first times she was turned out after arriving here. Rosalee is expected to mature around 12.2 hands.
