Mayme is a strong dun factor
1995 daughter of *Seekers Warrior, and is a feminine version of him, except
for being taller and much less curly: she is a true minimally expressed Curly
Horse. When I acquired her it was winter in South Dakota, and I thought she
was a smooth coated Curly mare until I got close enough to her to see her
ears. When you get close you see a little coat curl on her neck beneath her
mane and most importantly, the hair inside her ears (the typical giveaway)
is very curly. She produced an extreme filly by *Bad Warrior in 1999, which
further indicates her dominant Curly gene. She has produced 2 extreme foals
now, both of which have kept their tail hair so far. She is a range mare,
but is sensible and easy to handle and work with; I am even putting her in
a halter these days; (although never technically halter broke) she is very
docile, intelligent & quiet natured. |
