I am doing a research project at Binghamton University and I need mane samples of horses that jump AND don’t jump (can be any horse). This opportunity will help me to get into Veterinary School and hopefully help trainers/owners/equestrians in the future.
Unfortunately, I can’t give more information unless you message me on COTH, facebook, or through email.
If you are interested please fill out this survey:

AND:
Please PULL hair from your horses’ mane. I need the follicles from the mane, so enough to be see these follicles (probably 10-12 pieces)
Put it in a plastic bag
With your name and your horses’ name
Then message me for more details on where to send it

Results of Research:
If you want your horses’ results, I can supply that information on my facebook page, so please contact me.
Or if you don’t have facebook, I can email you.

But nobody balked at pulling a one - inch wide gap of hair from their horse’s mane? I can’t imagine that’s what’s needed exactly, but that is how it’s worded.[/QUOTE]
I think the OP needs to give a better description of how much mane they want. A one inch section on my gelding would be like six hairs. A one inch section on my haflinger would be a very full bag.
Clearly the OP needs a certain amount of hairs, with the roots. It might be best to say how much hair is needed.
