Are #3 and #4 of the Ermine AMs still available to name? I’m very interested in this variety, I raised silvers for a while and they were some of my favorite birds.
If they are available, I’ll go with the names Andy and River.

Yes! And great names, I actually had River in mind the other day!!!!! Also, I had a buckskin appaloosa when I was a teenager named Andy, great memories, she was the first horse I broke to ride by myself.

Wow, she sounds gorgeous. I haven’t ridden much lately (the ground feels harder now than it used to) but I was a horse nut growing up.

Me too! I never thought I'd ever stop riding, but I haven't ridden in years now and the thought of getting on a green horse has zero interest for me anymore I don't bounce like I used to, heck, my hips and shoulders bother me enough just from sleeping wrong we got a horse again 2 years ago, but she's a broodmare, she was raced, so she's track broke but I wouldn't trust her to just hop on... she's a spicy thing.

“Track broke” and “broke” are two very different things.

WILDLY different this horse has zero respect for your personal space, no manners, and is super clumsy. I tried working with her a few times, but I'm afraid she'll hurt herself, so as aggravating as it is to have a bad-mannered horse, there she be...

I do everything from my phone, so I've been writing things down, and going back to the first page and back and forth

I had a difficult time converting from my laptop to using a phone....screen is so small, plucking away at the keys (I type really fast on my laptop), just everything about a phone was annoying, etc... but eventually I got used to it, now I hate using the laptop, so....

Here's me as a teenager with my "wild horse from a round up".... (1970 something)

One of my friend‘s horses from a few years back. She was kind enough to let me hang out with them when I wanted some horse time. (I’ll stop hijacking the thread now. )

Grey horses are my favorite! And I love Appy's. You had a darn near perfect horse there in my opinion!
