The History on the Gypsy Beauties
The earliest records of multi-colored horses (such as the gypsy horse) are from cave drawings estimated to be approximately 20,000 years old. In past times, such multi-colored horses were believed to be omens of good fortune.
The association of the Rom with horses is almost legendary. By tradition, the gypsy horse is involved in each and every aspect of family life...faithfully pulling the vardo by day, yet sufficiently amenable and patient to be the gentle mount of gypsy children when the day is done. Often staked out alongside the road with the family wagon in all types of weather when not "on the move," the gypsy horse lives and thrives for the most part by partaking of the grasses which happen to be growing where it is tethered. The heartiness and exceptional disposition of the gypsy horse is its trademark and such an animal is generally considered to be cold-blooded, incredibly adaptable from the moment of birth.Hi am Twilight and thank you for reading please vote for me for March HOTM ,heres a vote for you tooCome visit me, Twilight.

PERSONAL COMMENT
Ok but at least i have the info the pics and the facts that horse isn't even black and generally quarter horses don't live to be thirty and if they do on some off chance they would be retired or should be retired.
SPROCKET AND FRIENDS UPDATE
Sprocket – Yesterdays update. We gave all the horses there shot's they were all good except for Bruce and Cody who had both been severely abused in there youths. Sprocket was good but then was a brat the rest of the time because the last time the vet had come with to give shots she had brought cookies but since she didn't have them this time Sprocket was trying to eat the vaccines out of her med box. Afterwords I took Sprocket up and let him graze for about an hour. Then I tacked up and did a light walk trot workout in the arena he was fabulous so I gave him some senior feed and let him graze for another half hour. After that I took out Project Ponies Fawn and Sizzler and grazed them for an hour and a half, then I fed the horses and went home.
QUESTION OF THE DAY
Who is do you think is the most talented race horse ever to run?Come visit me, Sizzler - if only voting once please vote Sprock, Golden Sprocket & Fawn - Please vote Sprock if giving just one vote.

sorry no vote i don't believe that's your horse
SPROCKET AND FRIENDS UPDATE
Sprocket – Had an awful ride Sprocket wasn't that bad but I was! It was probably because I was upset that one of the feral cats living at Golden Boy had to be put down because he had HIV. Well I'm still upset so I'm not going to go into detail.
