She is very pretty!

My only question is, why would you roach a mini's mane? That is not something that is popular in the breed..

I saw her pics when I signed back on earlier, she is adorable, I like a horse or pony with a roached mane, if they have the neck for it....she is a cutie!! Cathy

It makes it easier if the mane is all scraggly and has funny lengths. Hair grows back. She sure looks cute

i roached her cause her mane was not like a normal horse, it (for some odd reason) would not grow and it was short and stiff and wiry and i just could not do anything with it at all

, i tried pulling it but that would not work.

after several months of trying to do something with it i finally decided to roach it just to see how it would look and i think it turned out pretty good even if i do say so myself.

i am going to let it grow back out for a while to see how it will look.
