Horse Breeding

George Washington's favorite horse was a chestnut named Nelson. He is often depicted in paintings on a grey horse and apparently owned a stallion named Blueskin. There is a reference to Washington requesting a trade for a black horse that he intends to use as a breeding stallion, since there are no paintings depicting this stallion we only have the word of the 1st President that he was black.

what kind of affect of symtoms

Mules have been bred since at least 3,000 B.C. in ancient Egypt, where they were used much as they have been in the 5,000 years since: as beasts of burden.

Usually the odour of a female horse or donkey will have a strong smell when they are in heat. The male will be able to smell the hormones in the urine, and signal that she is ready for breeding.

18, only a purebred Arabian can have 17 ribs, you can get a Arabian that maybe is 3/4 Arabian and 1/4 something else and it's possible but EXTREMELY rare that it will have 17 ribs. Trying to breed a cross-bred Arabian with 17 ribs won't get you anywhere much unless you are breeding a 3/4 Arabian.

. Yes and no. He has some nice roping horses And when some of them don't perform he has his ranch boss sell em.

There were no "breeds" of horses in the medieval period, just as there were no breeds of dog, goat or sheep.

Horses were categorised according to the natural characteristics they possessed; any horse that had relatively short legs, a long body and an even, stable gait was considered to be a palfrey (a good quality riding horse). A horse with a less comfortable gait would be classed as a rouncey (a less expensive general riding horse).

Horses that were useless for riding were called sumpters - pack-horses.

Knights kept their very best horses as destriers, for hunting and warfare, because they were strong, patient, fast and fearless - not because they belonged to any particular breed.

Knights would normally ride a palfrey or rouncey, keeping the destrier fresh and ready for battle. They also kept sumpters to carry food, weapons, camp equipment and other stores. A knight therefore had many horses at his disposal.

I have a carousel horse I bought already put together, that is made out of a "Spring" horse. It has a square wooden base, and pole. There is a square hole cut out of its belly that has a wooden block in it, to support the weight I assume. There is also a hole that is round where the poll comes out at the point of his withers on top.

Here are some pictures. I thought maybe they would help explain. :-)

You don't indicate if the vehicle was recently driven. I assume it was not recently driven and it takes a longer period of time to ignite. It's likely that this is because the engine is not getting enough fuel. This occurs because the onboard diagnostic (OBD II) "reads" the engine as NOT needing a "richer" mixture, as during a "cold" start. The possible causes are many. SOLUTION: Assuming the plugs, wires, valves and air filter, are in their correct operating configuration, there is a technique you can try that may help. When you turn the ignition key on, stop at the point just before the car is asked to turn over. You will see the dashboard fully lit. Stay there for about 5 seconds. This lets the fuel pump "charge up" the fuel rail and push as much fuel as possible into the cylinders. Then turn the key to the position that starts the engine. IF THAT DOESN'T WORK, check your air filter and wires. The valves should be adjusted if those items check out. You should be able to remove the air filter, hold it up to sunlight and see the sun's core. The wires can be tested with an ohmmeter - you'll have to ask me about that later. The valves are adjusted with the engine cool.

The reason a milk carton (which has a square footprint) looks like a prism is that when it is viewed from the the side, there will always be a face of the carton hidden from view. A maximum of three sides will be visible (but only one if it is viewed on a line of sight perpendicular to any face or side) when a viewer is looking at the carton. The three-sided solid figure that it looks like is called a prism.

In breeding, an open pony (mare) would be a female pony sized horse who is not a foal.

In the show world an "open" pony class/show could also mean open to all breeds and or classes of riders (amateurs, professionals), sizes of ponies, etc.

Horses are Polygyny in their breeding style. A stallion will mate with any mare in his harem that is in heat, and will try to steal mares from other stallions. A mare typically only mates with the current band stallion, but may wander off and breed with another available stallion.

It varies, depends on when they got fertilized.

Horses generally reach reproductive maturity by 18 months of age. The upper limit for successfully breeding a mare is around 20-25 years old, with the fertility declining significantly after the age of 15. Pregnancy risks also increase in older mares.

Usually, right after birth, a colt's penis does show. Until the foal can learn to control all of his muscles, his penis should go inside the sheath. During the time that it's out, you should make sure, like the rest of the body, it is very clean.

Female mules typically do not have a regular heat cycle like mares. They are usually infertile due to the mismatched number of chromosomes from their horse and donkey parents.

Depending on the date of the ultrasound the mare could still be pregnant under certain circumstances.

1) If the mare has many uterine cysts a pregancy could be mistaken for a cyst.

2) If the conceptus is not large enough to be observed at the time of the ultrasound.

(ex. the ultrasound is done at what is thought to be day 12 post ovulation but the conceptus is only at day 10).

3) The mare double ovulated and only the younger conceptus, which has gone unobserved, continues to develop. Usually, the veterinarian determines if the

mare has double ovulated during the course of each ultrasound.

If the mare does not return to heat as expected after a negative ultrasound she should be rechecked for pregnancy and, if open, the veterinarian may be able to

determine the rootcause for her failure to return to heat.

Agouti is a type of rodent commonly found in Central and South America. They resemble large guinea pigs and have a distinctive appearance with short ears, webbed feet, and a bushy tail. Agoutis play an important role in their ecosystems by dispersing seeds and helping to maintain biodiversity.

Horses can manufacture their own vitamin C. Vitamins A and B are required by all horses and are generally readily available in a normal diet of hay. Grain may be required if the stallion frets over mares and will not take the time to eat adequate

amounts of hay.

Palomino foals can range in color from creamy gold to nearly chestnut looking, where

the mane color in the same as the body color but grows out the signature white as the foal coat sheds and the mane grows out.

As with most dog breeds, Great Danes will go into heat approximately every 60 days throughout the spring and summer.

Can a man with one testicle breed? The answer is YES

Friesian horses were popular war horses, and mounts of knights.

For the Howrse game for Archimedes the answer is "for carrying knights".
