Everyone is straight-shouldered (except for the one that got the first premium designation), which is very definitely from the dam. A couple of them have hocks so far out they’re in another ZIP code.
I can’t help but wonder if any of them have been radiographed and what those films would show.
As others have said but it bears repeating - none of this is the fault of these babies. With proper nutrition and care there’s a job somewhere for all of them. Just not at the level, or the price point, KS is imagining. Even if they were priced more fairly, there’s not much of a market for unbroke horses for beginners or people who just want to trail ride and maybe pop over the occasional log. Those people are looking for broke and near-bombproof, not green.

Agreed, definitely not the fault of the babies, and they deserve to be well-fed and loved. Kate’s sole criteria for breeding seems to be making horses excessively tall and flashy.

Between the 50 Shades of Gray sales post and the horses very much looking like Viking ships, I don’t know whether or not to laugh or cry. This thread. Whew.

Cry. It is all so sad. No happy ending for these babies or broodies.

I ponder, ponder, ponder whilst I eat my hay if we might see a new Katie Special Bred Foal born this year aptly named … The SS COTH Viking.

Maybe a nice Amish family will buy the flashy pinto filly that just trotted and trotted and trotted in her sales video, and she will turn into a stylish family driving horse?
Imagine, an Imohtep daughter trotting all over town. Who would have thought?

So I learned a way long time ago to observe which gears a horse prefers at liberty. An inclination to favor one over the other is a tell. These babies trot. They trot trot trot trot trot.
It’s how they are wired.
NOw, look at the fluidity of these horses gliding between walk, halt, trot, canter, walk, trot, canter. They are so balanced and well built it is effortless.
The ‘boat paddlers’ swinging whips at these stickie-footed babies make me sick.

That was pretty clear in the ad for the one horse (that sold, the grey in the video of the adult owner) where the first thing she brags about is all the chrome, on a horse that is going to grey, and she knows is going to grey. But the chrome, that will not be visible sooner than later is the first bragging point. Interesting. So interesting.

Well she’s definitely not breeding them to create a pretty face. 
Ye Gods, the heads on these unfortunate creatures.

How can the height of a weanling or yearling be “17” or “16.3”?
That’s confusing.
When were those advertisements put out? Are they years old?
