I just had to post a thread on my big boy. He's a Belgian Draft and his name is Big Red. He has already broken one of the fence posts by just LEANING on it, LOL. He's HUGE. I'll take some more pictures of him later when I get some batteries for my camera. I just wanted the BBS family to see the new addition to our family, lol. I'm about 5'7 and you can see how much bigger he is than me. He is SO sweet and good-natured. When I have a treat he leans that big head over the fence and turns it to the side (like a dog does). I just love him so much. I can't wait to ride him. Unfortunately I don't have a big enough saddle, lol. Anyone know of anybody that might let me borrow a draft saddle?? If anyone on here has had Draft horses before, I would love to talk shop with you about these wonderful horses. Please email me or IM me if you have ever had Drafts, I have a LOT of questions I would love to ask fellow draft lovers.

That second picture isn't too good, but notice the three round bales behind him and you can get an impression of how big he is

What a magnificent beast! I so miss riding. Use to do it every weekend at my girlfriends house. Now I'm not fortunate enough to have a place big enough to stable one or I'd have a horse or two, or ten. LoL

LOL. KC did really good with my Rocky Mountain after he rubbed his belly, lol. Thanks everyone. I love that big boy so much!!! When I put Red in with our little yearling, Angel went to look for a teat, LOL. Red wasn't too happy about that. They're good friends now.

[grins] You have every right to be, Chuck! [whispers] I'm a secret human spy for our real lord and masters the Equine community. They're aliens from another planet working with the MIB...[whhhhhiinnnnnnneeee FLASH!]

MIB - Your just a horse lover and a simple appraiser and know nothing of the equinian alien species. Have a nice day.
